Why don’t you stay just a little bit longer?
Just a little bit closer
Till the end of the song
It’s not too late to get something started
Turn the record on over
The night’s plenty long

The clock on the table has stopped
Freezing the frame we’re upon
Where now from here?
The lines are unclear when I’m in your arms
Hear now the rumble of walls
Crumbling around my resolve
With logic defied
What might we find between now and dawn?

So why don’t you stay just a little bit longer?
Just a little bit closer
Till the end of the song

Who knows what one kiss becomes
Driven by hearts on the drum
Well, minds can divine what it implies
When daylight comes

Why don’t you stay just a little bit longer?
Just a little bit closer
Till the end of the song
It’s not too late to get something started
Turn the record on over
The night’s plenty long
