After Midnight on Your Sofa

歌詞

[Verse 1] Rain draws silver lines on the window tonight City breathing slow in the blur of the light Your sweater on my skin, and the room stays warm Like a little place the whole world forgot The kettle gave up singing an hour ago Now the silence sways with the radio low I can hear the streetlights hum through the blinds And the softest storm moving over my mind [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to say it No, not yet Let the quiet linger Let it rest There’s a language in the space between us In the hush, in the heat, in the slow regret [Chorus] After midnight on your sofa Everything feels closer Velvet shadows on the ceiling Hands almost touching, breathing No one knows where we are going But the rain outside keeps falling And I could stay here a little longer After midnight on your sofa [Verse 2] Your glass leaves a ring on the wooden side table My heart does the same when you’re near, unstable Little flickers of laughter, then nothing at all Just the weight of the dark leaning soft on the wall Taxi lights slide by like scenes from a film Blue and gold reflections bending at the sill You look over slowly like you already knew I was losing sleep in the shape of you [Pre-Chorus] We don’t need a reason We don’t need a name Some things bloom in silence Some in gentle flame There’s a tenderness the night keeps hidden In a half-lit room where nothing stays the same [Chorus] After midnight on your sofa Everything feels closer Velvet shadows on the ceiling Hands almost touching, breathing No one knows where we are going But the rain outside keeps falling And I could stay here a little longer After midnight on your sofa [Post-Chorus] Mm, after midnight Mm, in the half-light Mm, with the city fading under us Mm, after midnight Mm, in the soft light Everything we hide is delicate enough [Verse 3] Maybe this is all that it ever should be A passing kind of ache, a beautiful maybe But your voice in the dark feels easy and deep Like a song I once knew coming back to me There’s a truth in the pause when the whole room slows In the warmth of your shoulder, in the way you don’t go No promises made, no morning to own Just this fragile glow that feels like home [Bridge] If the night disappears with the edges of dawn If the spell wears thin when the blue hour is gone I’ll still remember The sound of the rain The lamp in the corner The breath of your name If this is a moment, let it be complete Soft as the dust in the hush of the beat Close enough to hurt Calm enough to heal Like the kind of love you never say, only feel [Breakdown] Rain on the window Low light, slow time Your eyes, my thoughts No need, no lines Just the room turning gold While the city sleeps And the silence between us Gets so deep [Final Chorus] After midnight on your sofa Everything feels closer Velvet shadows on the ceiling Hands almost touching, breathing No one knows where we are going But the rain outside keeps falling And I could stay here a little longer After midnight on your sofa After midnight on your sofa Hearts a little softer Warm piano through the silence Two shadows, one horizon No one has to call it something Let the feeling keep becoming And I could stay here a little longer After midnight on your sofa [Outro] Rain draws silver lines on the window tonight City breathing slow in the blur of the light You and I, and the room, and the hour we borrow After midnight Before tomorrow
