Stay Until The Morning
by Evechon Music · Piano Pop Ballad
A coat on the chair, a bag by the door, and a clock neither of you can stop — "Stay Until The Morning" is the trembling plea of someone who knows the leaving might be final, yet can't bear for it to happen in the middle of the night. It asks for one more night not to fix what's broken, but to keep goodbye from becoming its ugliest version.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Your coat is on the chair now
Your bag is by the door
You say you need some distance
I’ve heard that word before
The clock keeps moving forward
Neither one of us moves
There’s a hundred things between us
And nothing left to prove
Pre-Chorus
I won’t ask for forever
I won’t ask you to lie
But don’t make this decision
In the middle of the night
Chorus
Stay until the morning
Stay until the light
We don’t have to fix it
We don’t have to make it right
Stay until the morning
Let the anger lose its name
Maybe we’ll still leave here
But we don’t have to leave this way
Stay until the morning
Stay until the morning
Verse 2
I know I made you lonely
While standing by your side
You learned to stop explaining
I learned to call that fine
I know that saying sorry
Doesn’t give the years back
But I don’t want our ending
To be one more thing we never said
Pre-Chorus
I won’t ask for forever
I won’t ask you to stay
But don’t let one bad evening
Decide what all of this became
Chorus
Stay until the morning
Stay until the light
We don’t have to fix it
We don’t have to make it right
Stay until the morning
Let the anger lose its name
Maybe we’ll still leave here
But we don’t have to leave this way
Stay until the morning
Stay until the morning
Bridge
Sit down beside me
You don’t have to speak
I know there are some promises
Too damaged now to keep
But there was something honest
Before we learned to hide
And I still think it matters
Even if it ends tonight
Final Chorus
Stay until the morning
Stay until the light
We don’t have to save it
Just don’t disappear tonight
Stay until the morning
Let me see you as you are
Maybe love is ending
But it doesn’t have to end this hard
Stay until the morning
Stay until the light
Maybe when the sun comes up
We’ll know if this is goodbye
Outro
Your coat is on the chair now
Your bag is by the door
Stay until the morning
Then we’ll know
