[Verse 1]
Will we get back
All our inhibitions
All the codes you're wishing
We could crack?
And if love is in the city
Then why is home so pretty and grey
And black?
Tell me, do you wanna stay a little longer?
And with me, in the backroom
All your serotonin
Flooding through the morning
Do you get sad
When you know it could be over?
Curtains they would close
When the sun would rise
I watch your pupils dimmer
Your blood runs quick and thinner

[Chorus]
Won't you stay with me? I love you so
Won't you sing with me, please, every note?
How I long to be 18 years old
In the crossfire
In the cold
[Verse 2]
Will we regret
All of those distractions
Ways that we reacted?
When you felt low
Is there something in the setting
Sun that you're forgetting, son?
Do we belong in a higher place?
In a powder race?
How do we erase
The sinking sand
Embedded deep in our heads?
Carefully you'll tread
Hold my hand instead

[Chorus]
Won't you stay with me? I love you so
Won't you sing with me, please, every note?
How I long to be 18 years old
In the crossfire
In the cold
In the cold

[Post-Chorus]
Won't you meet me at the loft at 4 Baillie Street?
Hold on to your dreams
Hold them tight with me
How I long to be at peace and in harmony
Won't you stay with me?
Won't you stay with me?
