Lyric

Coffee cooling by the window

Your blue sweater on the chair

Rain writes circles on the glass

And I find you waiting there

Take your time, no need to hurry

Leave the morning where it lies

I can read the little smile

You keep hiding in your eyes

Stay a little longer, darling

Let the quiet fill the room

We don't need a perfect answer

We just need this afternoon

Stay a little longer, darling

Put your hand inside of mine

All the ordinary moments

Fall into place in time

Old postcards beside the record

Two train tickets in a book

You tell me about your hometown

I remember how you look

Take your time, no need to hurry

Let the outside carry on

There is nowhere else I’d rather be

When the day is almost gone

Stay a little longer, darling

Let the quiet fill the room

We don't need a perfect answer

We just need this afternoon

Stay a little longer, darling

Put your hand inside of mine

All the ordinary moments

Fall into place in time

If tomorrow brings its questions

We can meet them when they come

For tonight the kettle’s singing

And your shoulder feels like home

Stay a little longer, darling

Let the quiet fill the room

We don't need a perfect answer

We just need this afternoon

Stay a little longer, darling

Put your hand inside of mine

All the ordinary moments

Fall into place in time

Coffee cooling by the window

Your blue sweater on the chair

I can keep this little picture

With you sitting beside me there
