Lyrics
Intro – Whispered vocals, airy harmonies
Mmm, yeah...
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Damn...
I still remember last night.
(Last night, last night)
Don't go just yet...
(Stay with me)
Verse 1 – Soft, intimate lead
Your perfume's still dancing around my room
I swear this whole damn place reminds me of you
The sunlight's creeping through the blinds
But I'd rather stay here and waste some time
You said you weren't looking for something real
But tell me why the hell did it feel so real?
We said we'd keep our feelings out of sight
But we both knew better by the end of the night
Background harmonies
We knew better (knew better)
Oh, we knew better (yeah, yeah)
Pre-Chorus – Building vocal layers
Was it the wine talking?
Was it the stars above?
Or was it something deeper
That we couldn't call love?
High harmonies
Couldn't call love (couldn't call love)
But it felt like love
Chorus – Full layered harmonies
When the sun comes up
Will you still be here?
Or will you disappear
Like you never cared?
'Cause last night fucked with my head
Got a million things I should've said
And I don't know what the hell this was
But God knows I want another one
Backing vocals
Another one (another one)
Just one more night (one more night)
Don't leave me here tonight
Verse 2 – More expressive, slightly raspy
Your little laugh is stuck inside my brain
And honestly, I'm getting sick of playing games
You act like we were strangers yesterday
Like all those little moments just evaporate
And fuck, I hate how I remember
Every little word, every little gesture
I wasn't supposed to care this much
But somehow you got underneath my guard
Background vocals
Underneath my guard (my guard)
You got underneath my guard
Pre-Chorus – Falsetto response
Was it the wine talking?
Was it the stars above?
Or was it something deeper
That we couldn't call love?
Chorus – Rich stacked vocals
When the sun comes up
Will you still be here?
Or will you disappear
Like you never cared?
'Cause last night fucked with my head
Got a million things I should've said
And I don't know what the hell this was
But God knows I want another one
Bridge – Piano only, emotional lead
Maybe we're both fucking terrified
Of letting someone see what's inside
You keep your heart behind a locked door
And I keep coming back wanting more
I don't need you to promise forever
I just wanna know if you felt it too
'Cause I can lie to everybody else
But I can't keep lying to myself about you
Background choir – Gradually building
About you (about you)
It's always you (always you)
Don't know what to do (what to do)
Final Chorus – Full harmonies, powerful falsetto
When the sun comes up
I want you still right here
No more acting like
We don't have something here
'Cause last night fucked with my head
And I'd do it all again
I don't know what the hell this was
But I'm starting to think it's love
Layered vocals
Starting to think it's love
(It's love, it's love)
Oh, don't let go
(Don't let go, don't let go)
Outro – Extended vocal outro
Mmmm, don't go...
(Stay, stay, stay)
I know it's getting late...
(Oh, I know, I know)
But I ain't ready for the morning
(Not ready, not ready)
Last night...
(Last night)
Tell me you felt something too...
(Something too, something too)
Ooooooh...
Fade out with overlapping falsetto runs, whispered ad-libs, and slowly disappearing harmonies.
