[Verse 1] I found a place where the colors hold still A quiet blue pressed against the windowsill One little shape in a wide-open frame Keeping its silence, refusing a name [Pre-Chorus] I don't need the whole world tonight Just one true thing in the fading light [Chorus] Stay where you are, let the distance be kind Leave a small mark at the edge of my mind If I carry this scene when the day disappears It will fit in my hands, it will last through the years [Verse 2] There is a softness beneath every shade A careful promise the afternoon made No crowded roads, no unfinished reply Only the room and the open sky [Pre-Chorus] I don't need the whole world tonight Just one true thing in the fading light [Chorus] Stay where you are, let the distance be kind Leave a small mark at the edge of my mind If I carry this scene when the day disappears It will fit in my hands, it will last through the years [Bridge] Maybe beauty is simple and brief A quiet hand resting lightly on grief Maybe we keep what we cannot explain A color, a shape, a moment in rain [Final Chorus] Stay where you are, let the distance be kind Leave a small mark at the edge of my mind If I carry this scene when the day disappears It will fit in my hands, it will last through the years [Outro] One true thing in the fading light One true thing, and I’m all right
