Lying in my bed stuck inside my head with thoughts of you
Our memory dances, but the light's leaving soon
Caught in the silence of the night
I trace the outlines of where you might have been right
And the clock keeps ticking, but your laughter's still here
Filling up the silence like you had no fear
I want to say the words but they're tangled up tight
You've got the key, babe, to my heart tonight
So stay for a while, let's lose track of time
Pull the stars a little closer, let them shine
We'll drown out the echoes of the world outside
Just you and me, baby, let's enjoy our time
The city's sleeping, but my heart's wide awake
Every moment with you feels like the best risk to take
Swirling like the leaves in the autumn breeze
Just a breath away from falling to my knees
We're painting memories in the colors of dusk
Holding on to magic, in your touch I trust
If I could freeze this moment, I'd find a way to stay
But the dawn is creeping in, it pulls you away
So stay for a while, let's lose track of time
Pull the stars a little closer, let them shine
We'll drown out the echoes of the world outside
Just you and me, baby, let's enjoy our time
And I know life can pull us in different directions
But tonight you're my compass, my one connection
With every fleeting second, I'll hold you tight
Let's make this moment ours, in the fading light
So stay for a while, let's lose track of time
Pull the stars a little closer, let them shine
We'll drown out the echoes of the world outside
Just you and me, baby, let's enjoy our time
So stay for a while, as the sunshine grows bright
In this dance of desire, it feels so right, such delight
When the morning comes, if you must go away
Just remember this moment, and how we chose to stay
