[Intro] Just tonight Could you stay a little longer? [Verse 1] It's been such a long time since goodbye Funny how you still feel close to me Sitting here like nothing ever happened Smiling like we're doing fine I thought leaving you would be the hardest Thought I'd never see your face again But the moment you sat down beside me I became that girl again [Pre-Chorus] I still know the way you take your coffee I still know that look I can tell what you're about to say Before you even speak How did we Become strangers after this? [Chorus] Just tonight, could you stay a little longer? You don't even have to say a word You don't have to hold me You don't have to want me Just don't leave this empty chair Don't tell me that you love me I might be foolish enough to believe I know the one you're going home to Isn't me I know I know [Verse 2] You cut your hair a little shorter It looks better than it did before And you're wearing that familiar fragrance I could recognize anywhere For a second I almost believed it Maybe nothing really changed at all Maybe all the time we left between us Could disappear tonight [Pre-Chorus 2] But I know better now You didn't come back here to find me We just happened to meet again Still, just for tonight Could we pretend We don't know how this ends? [Chorus] Just tonight, could you stay a little longer? You don't even have to say a word You don't have to love me You don't have to come back Just stay until this night is gone Don't tell me that you're sorry That's one thing I don't need from you The fact that I still want you Is my problem Not yours Not anymore [Bridge] But before you go There's one thing I wanna ask you Since the night we said goodbye Was there ever One lonely moment When for no reason You thought of me too? [Final Chorus] When tonight is over, I'll let you go I won't ask you to come back again This time when you're leaving I'll watch until you're gone I won't be the first to turn away Don't tell me that you loved me I can't hear you put us in the past Some part of me is still Right where you left me That night [Outro] So just tonight Sit here beside me Like we never had a name When morning comes I'll let you go For real this time
