Velvet After Hours

[Verse 1] You leave your coffee cooling by the book A silver ring around the place you took The elevator hums, then disappears I read your almost-message through the tears [Pre-Chorus] If you turn back now I won’t ask you why Just put your hand in mine And let the hours pass us by [Chorus] Stay for the last train, stay for the sound Stay while the whole room turns upside down I’ll keep the door open, I’ll keep it warm You don’t have to promise me more than tonight [Verse 2] The waiter folds the linen, one by one The corner booth is empty when he’s done Your blue scarf catches underneath the chair I hold it like a secret in the air [Pre-Chorus] If you turn back now I won’t ask you why Just put your hand in mine And let the hours pass us by [Chorus] Stay for the last train, stay for the sound Stay while the whole room turns upside down I’ll keep the door open, I’ll keep it warm You don’t have to promise me more than tonight [Bridge] Maybe morning changes every word Maybe we were braver than we heard Before the quiet takes the room Before the blue returns too soon [Final Chorus] Stay for the last train, stay for the sound Stay while the whole room turns upside down I’ll keep the door open, I’ll keep it warm You don’t have to promise me more than tonight [Outro] More than tonight More than tonight
