[Verse 1] You left your jacket on the chair A silver pin still caught in there I found your note beneath the cup One crooked line: “Don’t give this up” [Pre-Chorus] You take the long way past my door Then turn around and ask for more Say what you came here to say Don’t let the moment slip away [Chorus] Come a little closer, tell me what you mean You keep your hands folded, but your eyes are telling me If you want to leave, then leave the key If you want to stay, come stay with me [Instrumental Hook] [Verse 2] The train was late, the platform cold You shared your scarf; I held the fold Your laugh escaped before the train I kept that sound through all the rain [Pre-Chorus] You take the long way past my door Then turn around and ask for more Say what you came here to say Don’t let the moment slip away [Chorus] Come a little closer, tell me what you mean You keep your hands folded, but your eyes are telling me If you want to leave, then leave the key If you want to stay, come stay with me [Bridge] [Male reply] You said you’d call when you got home [Female] I watched the station empty out alone [Male reply] I kept your note inside my coat [Female] Then read it once before I wrote [Half-Time Break] [Final Chorus] Come a little closer, tell me what you mean You keep your hands folded, but your eyes are telling me If you want to leave, then leave the key If you want to stay, come stay with me [Outro] Come stay with me Come stay with me
