Lyric

[Verse 1]

Morning light across the carpet

Thin and almost white

The radiator barely humming

Through the quiet apartment

Traffic somewhere underneath

Moving soft and slow

Like the city waking carefully

Not to disturb the dark

[Pre-Chorus]

I thought the night was over

But it stayed inside the room

[Chorus]

The room still holding night

All the faded blue light

Resting on the walls

The room still holding night

Every quiet feeling

Lingering in air

[Verse 2]

An empty cup beside me

Cold against my hand

Someone talking far outside

Then disappearing again

Your sweater near the window

Still catching morning grey

Like a memory the daylight

Hadn’t touched just yet

[Bridge]

Slowly

The shadows became silver

Slowly

The silence turned warm

[Final Chorus]

The room still holding night

Nothing really vanished

It just stayed more quietly

The room still holding night

The whole city breathing

Through the pale morning
