[Verse 1] Bare feet on the tile Door swings to the yard You laugh through the screen I’m already half-learned Ice in the glass Sweat on my hand Pool water shimmer All over your tan The whole block slow But we don’t slow down Moon on your shoulders When you turn around [Pre-Chorus] Stay a little closer Let the hours bend One more turn of the key And we start again Hold that look on me Like a favorite song Summer stays awake When you pull me along [Chorus] Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me Move like that, don’t break the spell Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me One more touch, and I can tell Summer nights, stay on me [Verse 2] Red cups on the steps Condensation rings Your voice in the dark Does a dangerous thing We talk in slow sparks We smile like thieves The screen door clicks And the whole place breathes You trace my name On the cold of the glass I tell you stay And you stay a while past [Pre-Chorus] Stay a little closer Let the hours bend One more turn of the key And we start again Hold that look on me Like a favorite song Summer stays awake When you pull me along [Chorus] Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me Move like that, don’t break the spell Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me One more touch, and I can tell Summer nights, stay on me [Bridge] Turn the porch light low Let the moment run Your hand finds my hand And we turn to one If the dawn comes round Let it wait outside I’m good right here In this stolen time [Chorus] Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me Move like that, don’t break the spell Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me Summer nights, stay on me One more touch, and I can tell Summer nights, stay on me
