Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Mm

Verse 1

Wet pavement holds the orange glow

Of sodium lights my window knows

Your phone still crackling in your palm like rain

I traced the fog along the glass with my thumb

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I

Maybe we stayed too long past the last train

Maybe I

Maybe I don't want this minute gone

Chorus

Slow headlights blur across the avenue

One more sip and I'll tell you the truth

That I'm not going anywhere

That I'm not going anywhere

Post-Chorus

Mm

Not going anywhere

Mm

Verse 2

Dark wood hums beneath the half-empty glass

Your jacket slipped off the back of the chair

Condensation drips a slow metallic line

And I watch your blurry reflection there

Pre-Chorus

Maybe I

Maybe I keep the overhead lights all off

Maybe you

Maybe you're the reason the room feels soft

Chorus

Slow headlights blur across the avenue

One more sip and I'll tell you the truth

That I'm not going anywhere

That I'm not going anywhere

Bridge

Distant city breathing through the screen

Every siren fading somewhere between

Your hand and mine across the dark oak seam

I could stay right here till the last streetlight dies

Chorus

Slow headlights blur across the avenue

One more sip and I'll tell you the truth

That I'm not going anywhere

That I'm not going anywhere

Outro

Mm

Not going anywhere

Mm-hmm
