[Verse 1] Your porch light’s on again Over Maple Lane You pass me that small-town grin Like you know my name The diner clock goes slow Milk glass, lemon pie You save me the last seat By the window side [Pre-Chorus] And it’s quiet, quiet But it talks to me Your hand on my sleeve Feels like a secret key [Chorus] Stay a while, stay a while In this little town Stay a while, stay a while Let the whole thing slow down Your quiet love Hits me like a song Stay a while, stay a while Where we both belong [Verse 2] You’ve got dirt on your boots From the feed store run I’ve got your baseball cap For when the work is done We drift past the corner lot Past the water tank You don’t say much at all But I know what you mean [Pre-Chorus] And it’s quiet, quiet But it leans my way Like a screen door hum On a summer day [Chorus] Stay a while, stay a while In this little town Stay a while, stay a while Let the whole thing slow down Your quiet love Hits me like a song Stay a while, stay a while Where we both belong [Bridge] No big parade No front-page sign Just your shoulder close And your hand in mine When the grain trucks roll And the dogs start barks We’re a soft little glow In the dark, in the dark [Chorus] Stay a while, stay a while In this little town Stay a while, stay a while Let the whole thing slow down Your quiet love Hits me like a song Stay a while, stay a while Where we both belong [Outro] Maple Lane Porch light gold Your quiet love I hold, I hold
