[Verse] Smoke curls up like whispered dreams Coffee cools beside my hands Neon bleeds through tinted glass Counting moments as they pass [Pre-Chorus] City hums a lullaby Stars are fading in the sky [Chorus] Hold me close in morning’s sigh Coffee and cigarettes, you and I Soft light warming all we know In this quiet, let it grow Hold me close in morning’s sigh Coffee and cigarettes, you and I Every breath a gentle flight On this balcony tonight [Verse] Blankets fold around the chill Words we don’t need to say Time slips soft beneath our feet In your eyes, a new day’s sweet [Pre-Chorus] City hums a lullaby Stars are fading in the sky [Chorus] Hold me close in morning’s sigh Coffee and cigarettes, you and I Soft light warming all we know In this quiet, let it grow Hold me close in morning’s sigh Coffee and cigarettes, you and I Every breath a gentle flight On this balcony tonight [Bridge] And maybe dreams are just like smoke Rising slow, too soft to choke But here with you, the night’s all right Fading into dawn’s first light [Chorus] Hold me close in morning’s sigh Coffee and cigarettes, you and I Soft light warming all we know In this quiet, let it grow Hold me close in morning’s sigh Coffee and cigarettes, you and I Every breath a gentle flight On this balcony tonight [Outro] On this balcony tonight Softly, hold me tight
