[Intro] I kept your note in my coat Folded small, by the seam Said if I lost your name I'd lose the shape of the dream [Verse 1] You left salt on my glass From the night you cried Now the room holds your shape Like a chair left wide I still count your steps On the floorboards by the door And every time you go I want a little more [Pre-Chorus] Stay a little longer Don't turn that way My heart goes quiet When you start to sway [Chorus] Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight I don't want the dark To know your name Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight If you leave this room I burn the same (Stay in my arms tonight) [Verse 2] There's a chipped blue mug On the window ledge With your lipstick mark On the broken edge I wore your old scarf Till it learned my skin Now it smells like rain And the words you left me in [Pre-Chorus] Stay a little longer Don't turn that way My heart goes quiet When you start to sway [Chorus] Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight I don't want the dark To know your name Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight If you leave this room I burn the same (Stay in my arms tonight) [Bridge] If the moon comes up And makes us honest Say my name slow Like you're keeping promise I don't need forever Just this hour Your hand on my chest Like a last white flower [Final Chorus] Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight I don't want the dark To know your name Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight If you leave this room I burn the same Stay in my arms tonight Stay in my arms tonight Hold me like the rain I Can't wash away (Stay in my arms tonight)
