(hummmm) mm,
right there
I lean into the room like a low lamp glow Table rings,
old notes, and a half-closed door Your name moves slow on the
rim of my cup I say it once plain and the whole
night opens up No rush in the kick,
let the record spin true A little dust in the air,
I can still find you I tell the truth gentle,
no need to perform Just a hand on the glass,
keeping all of it warm
Stay here in the soft blue hour Hold me in the slow
groove now Nothing loud,
just a quiet fire You and me,
taking time somehow
Stay here when the room turns over Sing my name in a
narrow light
I can feel the whole world loosen When you move with me
just right You laugh through your teeth and the air gets clear
Small sound, real close,
like I only hear Past the worn-out talk and the practiced cool
We got our own timing,
we can bend the rules Let the snare sit back,
let the organ breathe Let the bass say what we don't need
to speak I keep my voice low but the meaning cuts through
Every little pause keeps pulling me to you
Ah,
the night gets wider Ah,
my guard gets lighter If you want the truth now
I was yours before now
Stay here in the soft blue
hour
Hold me in the slow groove now Nothing loud,
just a quiet fire You and me,
taking time somehow Stay here when the room turns over Sing my
name in a narrow light I can feel the whole world loosen
When you move with me just right Stay here
Slow groove Mm, just right (hummmm)
