Lyrics

Intro

mmm, ah-ah

soft light, soft light (oh)

Verse

You fold your sweater over the chair

Like it's carrying the shape of you there

Steam on the window, small fingerprints

A quiet map of all our little hints

You hum a line that I used to know

It pulls the quiet closer, slow

Fingers trace the rim of my mug

I keep my voice soft, keep my voice snug

Pre-chorus

I don't need thunder, I don't need grand designs

Just the easy rhythm of your slow goodbyes (slow goodbyes)

If the world spins wild, let it spin outside

Here, inside, let me be your tide (let me be)

Chorus

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Lay your hand on the page where I write your name

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Verse

We laugh about the things we never said

Replay the small apologies in bed

Your hair falls soft like a question mark

I answer with a quiet, "I won't go dark"

Late songs and a mismatched pair of shoes

The tiny favors, the morning news

You teach me how to trust the tender parts

How to keep the candle without blowing out hearts

Pre-chorus

There's no rush to solve what we can't see

Just breathing in, breathing out, you next to me (next to me)

If the world writes storms, we'll read them like lines

I will be your calm between the times (between the times)

Chorus

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Lay your hand on the page where I write your name

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Bridge

Hold me, hold me (hold me), like a secret spelled in light

Hush now, hush now (hush now), let’s pretend it's all alright

Ta-ta-touch the corners where the sorrow used to live

Ki-ki-kiss the places where we learned to forgive

Chorus

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Lay your hand on the page where I write your name

Stay with me a little while, stay, stay with me

Outro

mmm, ah-ah

stay, stay (stay)
