Verse 1
Half past one and the lamp is low
You trace the hem of my sleeve
Somewhere below us the traffic hums
Slow like a tide we don't leave
Pre-Chorus
Say it quiet
Say it close
Let the room keep its secrets
Chorus
Stay a while
Stay a while
Let the hours fold like sheets
Stay a while
Stay a while
Nothing here I'd rather keep
Post-Chorus
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Verse 2
Your hair falls loose on the pillowcase
Held between waking and sleep
I could learn patience from the way you breathe
Easy and even and deep
Pre-Chorus
Say it soft
Say it slow
Let the night take its chances
Chorus
Stay a while
Stay a while
Let the hours fold like sheets
Stay a while
Stay a while
Nothing here I'd rather keep
Post-Chorus
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Bridge
Windows fogged a soft bruised blue
Two cups going cold
Two bodies warm
Tell me what you're thinking now
Tell me if it's me
Chorus
Stay a while
Stay a while
Let the hours fold like sheets
Stay a while
Stay a while
Nothing here I'd rather keep
Post-Chorus
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
