[TITLE] LAST SONG BEFORE SUNRISE [Verse 1] The room is quiet now Only echoes and empty glasses The night we thought would never end Is already becoming the past You stand beside the doorway Like you’re halfway gone But something in the silence Still wants to hold on [Pre-Chorus] So don’t say anything Don’t make this real just yet Let the record spin A little longer [Chorus] Play the last song before sunrise Leave the lights on one more time If tomorrow takes us somewhere else Leave tonight behind And if years erase our faces If the seasons pass us by Play the last song before sunrise [Verse 2] Maybe love was never forever Maybe forever was tonight Maybe all we really needed Was one unforgettable light Outside the morning’s coming Inside we still belong And for these few last moments Nothing can go wrong [Pre-Chorus] Stay until the final note Stay until the feeling fades Stay while we still know Who we are [Chorus] Play the last song before sunrise Keep the city out of sight If this dream must end eventually End it slowly tonight And if somebody asks someday How beautiful life can be Play the last song before sunrise [Bridge – band drops / harmonies rise] Raise your glass Raise your heart Everything ends But not this part No goodbye No regret Leave the music playing yet [Final Chorus – biggest moment] Play the last song before sunrise Turn the speakers up tonight If tomorrow changes everything This memory survives And if somebody hears our voices Long after we’re gone Tell them we were dancing Tell them we belonged [Outro – fade] Last song… Before sunrise… Goodnight… Goodnight…
