Stay with Me Tonight

You left your silver comb beside the telephone. A little note that said, "Don't wait up, I'll be home." I kept the hallway lamp on till the morning Came, and traced your name in dust against the Window pane. Then your key Turned softly in the door. And I was yours The way I was Before. Stay with me, close to me. Let the whole night carry us away. Stay with me, Honestly, there's a thousand tender things I wanna Say. When you're near, The world feels right. Stay with me tonight. Your coat still smells of winter and the train Ride back. You laugh and tell me how you missed the Last track. We trade our little stories, warm our hands in Tea. And every quiet minute brings you back to Me. Now your key Is resting by the door. And I don't need to ask for more. Stay with me, close to me. Let the whole night carry us away. Stay with me, Honestly, there's a thousand tender things I wanna Say. When you're near, The world feels right. Stay with me tonight. If morning finds us talking still, Let it wait beyond the windowsill. No grand promise, no alibi, Just your hand resting next to Mine. Stay with me, close to me. Let the whole night carry us away. Stay with me, Honestly, there's a thousand tender things I wanna Say. You're near, the world feels right. Stay with me tonight. Stay with me, close to me. Keep this little room from turning cold. Stay with me, Honestly, you're the sweetest truth I've ever Known. When you're near, the world feels Right. Stay with me Tonight. Stay With me Tonight. Stay with me.
