[Verse 1] My sister's suitcase is beside the stairs She flies at seven, says she ought to pack But our brother found the records in the spare room And nobody's in a hurry to go back We're older than the people in these pictures Still arguing whose turn it is to choose She puts the needle down and starts laughing At a dance I haven't done since middle school [Chorus] One more before the morning One more while we're here We spend so much time missing People standing right here Let the old floor take a little more Of our feet before we close that door One more before the morning This is what we made the trip for [Verse 2] Mom comes down to ask what all the noise is Then stays to show us how it's really done Dad keeps time with a spoon against his teacup For a minute we're all living in one home There'll be miles between our breakfasts come tomorrow And another date we'll struggle to arrange But tonight we get to fill the room with laughter That no distance ever managed to change [Chorus] One more before the morning One more while we're here We spend so much time missing People standing right here Let the old floor take a little more Of our feet before we close that door One more before the morning This is what we made the trip for [Bridge - bass and solo voice] No one says the thing we're all thinking That these nights get harder to find We just put another record on And hold the room a little longer this time [Instrumental saxophone dance break] [Final Chorus] One more before the morning One more while we're here We've got plenty left to carry From this room into the year Let the old floor take a little more Of our feet before we close that door One more before the morning This is what we made the trip for [Outro] Suitcase by the stairs Shoes all everywhere One more while we're here
