Let The Day Stay Long

V6

[Verse 1] Morning hits the blinds like a dare Coffee cools in the mug by the sink You keep the screen dark for a minute Just to hear your own thoughts think Open the latch, let the heat come through Let the dust make a map in the air There’s a version of you in that bright spill Who doesn’t flinch, who stays there [Chorus] Summer, summer, infinite summer light Throw the windows wide, let the world rush in Let it move through your bones Yeah, let it move through your bones Summer, summer, infinite summer light No need to fold yourself down to fit Let the day stay long Let the day stay long [Verse 2] We learned the hard way how to look twice How to question the thing that was handed down How to trade a safe little answer For a road with no signs in town Maybe growth is a blunt kind of weather It comes in and rearranges the room But the air feels cleaner after Like a match struck in a sealed-up moon [Chorus] Summer, summer, infinite summer light Throw the windows wide, let the world rush in Let it move through your bones Yeah, let it move through your bones Summer, summer, infinite summer light No need to fold yourself down to fit Let the day stay long Let the day stay long [Bridge] If it burns, let it burn off the old skin If it shakes, let it shake loose the chain We were never built to stay still We were made to change [Outro] Summer, summer, infinite summer light Keep the doors open after midnight Let it hum through your soul Oh, let it hum through your soul And if it hurts a little That’s how you know it’s real
