The ocean breathes in silver tones
A restless sky above the stones
Your shadow moves beside my own
But something in your eyes is gone
The wind is colder than before
It slips beneath the half-closed door
We speak in pauses, nothing more
Like we've been here a thousand times
We were strong when the light was wide
Now we're holding the fading tide
Stay through the night
Don't let the dark decide
If we're wrong or right
Just stay by my side
When the silence grows
And the last light goes
We don't have to know
Just stay through the night
The highway hums a distant hymn
White lines fading at the rim
Every word we don't begin
Hangs between us in the wind
The sky is heavy, low and grey
Like it's waiting for us to say
Something honest, something brave
Before it all just slips away
We were fire in open air
Now we're shadows standing there
Stay through the night
Even if hope runs thin
Hold on tight
To the shape we're in
When the daylight shows
What the darkness knows
If there's time to choose
Stay through the night
Ooh
If we let this moment break
There's no promise left to take
Ooh
If we turn and walk away
Will we ever find our way
Stay through the night
When the stars burn cold
When the truth we hide
Is too hard to hold
If the morning comes
And it feels undone
We can still be one
If we stay through the night
