Verse 1 The city lights are fading low Like embers in a dying fire Your shadow dances on the wall And I don’t want to lose the glow Lay your head where the moonlight knows Every secret that we hide Pre-Chorus The night is young but the morning’s wise And I can feel the turning tide Chorus Stay ‘til morning, baby, stay Let the sunrise find us this way Wrapped in whispers, skin on skin Don’t let the daylight take you again Stay ‘til morning… hold me through I’ll make the darkness fall in love with you Verse 2 Your fingers trace a silent song Along the curve of my shoulder Every breath you breathe on me Is softer than the radio We don’t need words, we don’t need wine Just this quiet space in time Pre-Chorus The world can wait outside the door We’ve got a few more hours more Chorus Stay ‘til morning, baby, stay Let the sunrise find us this way Wrapped in whispers, skin on skin Don’t let the daylight take you again Stay ‘til morning… hold me through I’ll make the darkness fall in love with you Bridge (harmony stacks rise, piano gentle arpeggios) If love is just a fleeting spark Then let it burn here in the dark One more song before the birds One more dream before the hurt Final Chorus (full harmonies, Cal’s voice blending sweet and low) Stay ‘til morning, baby, please Turn the clock down, bend the keys I’ll sing you soft, I’ll sing you slow Till the whole damn world don’t need to know Stay ‘til morning… stay with me Where the night still believes in you and me Outro (piano fades under brushed cymbals, layered “stay… stay…” harmonies) Stay ‘til morning… Stay ‘til morning… Let the light wait… just for me…
