[Intro] Faint glow on the window Dust hangs in the air Clock hands breathing slowly Like they’re going nowhere [Verse 1] Lay back in the airplane seat Clouds melt into silver sheets Your face in the plastic glass Ripples every time we laugh (mmm) Half asleep in a borrowed year Every word feels bent and weird You say “What if we don’t land?” I just reach and take your hand [Chorus] We’re falling up through timefall skies Past every version of our lives Old summers flicker in your eyes Then slide away Then slide away We’re flying through the days we missed Too late to run Too slow to risk If this is how the ending hits Let it stay Let it stay [Verse 2] Seatbelt sign in a red soft blur Drink cart bumps and the lights all stir Somewhere There’s a younger us Skipping stones and missing the bus I see it all in the aisle’s soft shake First heartbreak and the dumb mistakes Each row is a different age Peeling back like window shades [Chorus] We’re falling up through timefall skies Past every version of our lives Old summers flicker in your eyes Then slide away Then slide away We’re flying through the days we missed Too late to run Too slow to risk If this is how the ending hits Let it stay Let it stay [Bridge] Tell me Are we late or early For the lives we’re meant to live? (oh) If the future feels this blurry I’ll still bet it all on this If we’re just a passing moment Drifting in a tilted frame Let the seconds crash around us I will still repeat your name [Chorus] We’re falling up through timefall skies Past every version of our lives Old summers flicker in your eyes Then slide away Then slide away We’re flying through the days we missed Too late to run Too slow to risk If this is how the ending hits Let it stay Let it stay [Outro] Plane hum fades into soft white rain Your head on my shoulder Saying my name If this is the last loop we replay Let it stay Let it stay
