[Verse 1] You came in late With rain on your sleeve I saved you a seat By the red booth weave Your laugh hit low Like a glass set down I watched the day Slowly turn around [Pre-Chorus] And the spoon went still In my cup of gold Your hand found mine So careful, so bold [Chorus] Stay a little longer Let the dusk lean in Stay a little longer Let the slow night begin Oh, stay a little longer Till the stars come through I like this gentle Way I fall for you [Verse 2] The waiter asked If we wanted to close You said “not yet” And you brushed my coat A saxophone Breathed through the room Like it knew our names And our quiet bloom [Pre-Chorus] And the glass caught fire From the street outside You smiled at me Like you had nothing to hide [Chorus] Stay a little longer Let the dusk lean in Stay a little longer Let the slow night begin Oh, stay a little longer Till the stars come through I like this gentle Way I fall for you [Bridge] No grand parade No vow too loud Just your fingers tracing Circles in the crowd The whole world dims At the edge of night And your soft “come here” Feels exactly right [Sax Solo] [Chorus] Stay a little longer Let the dusk lean in Stay a little longer Let the slow night begin Oh, stay a little longer Till the stars come through I like this gentle Way I fall for you [Outro] Stay a little longer (Stay a little longer) Just me and you (Just me and you)
