歌詞

Piano on in the corner

Rain lines down the glass

Coffee cools by my notebook

Old songs, old days, come back

You stir sugar in your cup

Tiny circles, same as then

June umbrellas at the station

Paper tickets, paper plans

That old poster by the doorway

Colors faded, still it shines

You laugh soft about the price tag

"Those were simpler, cheaper times"

Stay a little longer in this yesterday café

Let the clatter of the cups wash the years away

We were almost lovers, almost brave enough to stay

Stay a little longer in this yesterday café

Banjo hanging on the wall

Missing string, crooked frame

Owner hums a tune from childhood

Says he can't recall the name

Your hand brushes past my sleeve

Accidental, then it stays

All at once the room grows smaller

Like a secret hallway made

Stay a little longer in this yesterday café

Let the clatter of the cups wash the years away

We were almost lovers, almost brave enough to stay

Stay a little longer in this yesterday café

Outside, taxis splash through puddles

Neon letters start to buzz

Inside, every clock moves slower

Like it’s waiting here for us (Oh)

Stay a little longer in this yesterday café

Let the clatter of the cups wash the years away

We were almost lovers, almost brave enough to say

"Let’s stay a little longer in this yesterday café"

You tie your scarf, say "see you"

Like you did that long-ago day

Doorbell rings, the chair stays empty

But your warmth, it never fades away
