[Verse 1] The afternoon is running late Golden light across the floor We said we'd leave an hour ago But no one's reaching for the door Music drifting from the kitchen Windows open to the street Nothing here was ever planned Still somehow it's all I need [Pre-Chorus] The day can wait The world can turn There's nowhere else I need to be [Chorus] Stay a little longer Let the daylight take its time Leave the windows open Let the evening wander in We don't need a reason We don't need another place Stay a little longer Don't let this moment hurry away [Verse 2] Someone's laughing down below Glasses catching bits of sun Bare feet resting on the table Half the conversation gone There's a song we almost remember So we make up half the words And somehow every wrong note Is the best thing that I've heard [Pre-Chorus] No photograph Could hold this right Some things are better While they're alive [Chorus] Stay a little longer Let the daylight take its time Leave the windows open Let the evening wander in We don't need a reason We don't need another place Stay a little longer Don't let this moment hurry away [Instrumental] [Bridge] Soon the lights will fill the windows Soon tomorrow will begin But tonight is still around us And I'm not ready to give it in So pour another little something Let the record play once more There's a whole world waiting out there It can wait outside the door [Final Chorus] Stay a little longer Let the stars come one by one Leave the windows open We're not finished with this one We don't need forever Just a little more today Stay a little longer Don't let this beautiful moment fade [Outro] Stay A little longer There's still A little light
