[Verse 1] I found your note in my coat Folded small as a moth By the sink, by the keys Where the cold air caught Your name on my tongue Like rain on a window pane I keep touching the line Where the ink ran away [Pre-Chorus] And I drift Slow and low Past the porch Past the snow One more time Let me stay In the blue Of your face [Chorus] Stay in my hands Stay in my hands Moon on the water, don't move Stay in my hands Stay in my hands I am still reaching for you (oh, stay) (oh, stay) Soft as a feather, you slip (oh, stay) (oh, stay) Bittersweet, under my skin [Verse 2] The screen went dark at ten Left the room full of dusk A glass on the sill And a ring of your trust I hear you in the stairs In the hum of the fan In the last little ache Of my open hand [Pre-Chorus] And I drift Slow and low Past the porch Past the snow One more time Let me stay In the blue Of your face [Chorus] Stay in my hands Stay in my hands Moon on the water, don't move Stay in my hands Stay in my hands I am still reaching for you (oh, stay) (oh, stay) Soft as a feather, you slip (oh, stay) (oh, stay) Bittersweet, under my skin [Bridge] If you come back now Bring the same small flame I can carry the ache I can speak your name Till the dawn turns pale Till the glass goes clear I will keep this wanting Close and near [Final Chorus] Stay in my hands Stay in my hands Moon on the water, don't move Stay in my hands Stay in my hands I am still reaching for you (oh, stay) (oh, stay) Soft as a feather, you slip (oh, stay) (oh, stay) Bittersweet, under my skin [Outro] Stay in my hands Stay in my hands Till the room turns blue
