Stay Like This

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

You said you wouldn't stay long

I know

Verse 1

You left your phone beside my bed

Screen lighting up every couple minutes

You don't even check it anymore

You're lying there like you live here

You asked me what I wanna watch

I said I don't care you pick

We spent twenty minutes scrolling

Then ended up just talking instead

You laughed at something I said

That wasn't even that funny

I looked away so you wouldn't see

How much I liked hearing it

Pre-Chorus

You said you should probably go

But you didn't move

And I didn't say anything

'Cause I didn't want to ruin it

Chorus

So stay like this

Your hand on my leg

Your shoes by the door

And your head on my chest

Don't tell me what this is

Don't ask me where it goes

If you're gonna leave

Let me have this first

'Cause I know you

And I know me

And we don't get nights like these

So stay like this

Just a little longer

Post-Chorus

Mm

Just a little longer

Don't make me say it

You already know

Verse 2

You know I hate the blue light

So you turned your screen face down

I didn't ask you to

You just remembered somehow

There's a half-empty glass

You forgot to finish again

And your charger is still plugged in

Like you'll be back tomorrow

You started telling me something

Then stopped halfway through

I said what

You said nothing

And smiled like you always do

Pre-Chorus

You checked the time on the wall

Like you suddenly remembered

I watched you reach for your shoes

Then you sat back down

Chorus

So stay like this

Your fingers in mine

The room getting quiet

We're losing track of time

Don't tell me what this means

Don't say it's getting late

If you're gonna leave

Can you make me wait

'Cause I know you

And you know me

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

So stay like this

Just a little longer

Post-Chorus

Mm

Don't look at the time

Just lie here beside me

A little more tonight

Bridge

Maybe tomorrow you'll wake up

And act like this didn't happen

Maybe I'll do the same thing

Maybe that's easier

You can take your charger

You can take your things

You can say you forgot your sweater

I'll know you didn't

But right now you're still here

And I'm not asking why

Your fingers are tracing circles

On the back of my hand

So don't get up yet

Final Chorus

Stay like this

Your hand on my leg

Your shoes by the door

Like you're not leaving yet

Don't tell me what this is

I don't wanna know

If this is all we get

Don't let me waste it

'Cause I know you

And I know me

And someday this won't feel this easy

So stay like this

Just a little longer

Stay like this

Don't turn the lights on

Let the morning find us

Before we decide what we've done

If you're gonna leave

You can leave when it's light

But tonight

Just stay like this

Outro

You said you wouldn't stay long

I know

You stayed anyway
