[Verse 1] You leave your silver lighter Beside the kitchen sink The window holds the winter And all the words we didn't think [Pre-Chorus] I turn the little dial Your station comes and goes I know the shape of silence The way it almost knows [Chorus] Stay where the room turns blue Let the night pass through I won't ask you to explain Just leave your coat here in the rain Stay till the morning moves Till the pale day finds its truth I can keep this quiet flame And never ask you for a name [Verse 2] Your note beneath the teacup Has softened at the fold A careful line of blue ink Says what we couldn't hold [Pre-Chorus] The hallway clock is patient The curtains barely stir I almost call you darling Then let the word defer [Chorus] Stay where the room turns blue Let the night pass through I won't ask you to explain Just leave your coat here in the rain Stay till the morning moves Till the pale day finds its truth I can keep this quiet flame And never ask you for a name [Bridge] Wenn du gehst, dann geh ganz leise Lass den Schlüssel neben mir One small light above the doorway And the rest belongs to you [Final Chorus] Stay where the room turns blue Let the night pass through I won't ask you to explain Just leave your coat here in the rain Stay till the morning moves Till the pale day finds its truth I can keep this quiet flame And never ask you for a name [Outro] Your silver lighter Beside the sink The station fades Before I think
