DON’T LET THE NIGHT KNOW

Don’t say it yet Come a little closer

Your jacket’s on the kitchen chair

Two empty glasses, morning air

Last train left an hour ago We both know

We don’t say so

Your phone lights up,

you turn it down

No one needs us anywhere now

If this is really

our last night

Don’t make it feel

Like goodbye We can talk tomorrow

We can ruin it then

Right now, just put that

record on again

Don’t let the night know We’re almost over Pull me a little

closer A little closer

Don’t let the night know

Don’t turn on the lights If we only get one more song

Let it last all night

Oh-oh

Don’t let the night know

Your shoes are waiting by the door

My lipstick’s still there on your glass The taxi says it’s two

minutes away

I hit cancel

You don’t ask

There’s nothing left we need to prove

Nothing clever left to do

Just dance with me across the room Like leaving

Isn’t coming soon

We can talk tomorrow

We can call it what it was

Tonight I don’t need a

reason

because—

Don’t let the night know We’re almost over Pull me a little

closer A little closer Don’t let the night know

Don’t turn on the lights If we only get one more song

Let it last all night

Oh-oh

Don’t let the night know

Not yet Not yet Not yet

Turn it up

Turn it up Turn it up

5:17

Your car is downstairs You look at me

I look anywhere Maybe goodbye

Can wait three minutes more

So I lock the door Don’t let the night know We’re almost

over Pull me a little closer

Closer than before Don’t let the night know Here comes the light

If we only get one more song Let it last all night

All night All night

Don’t let the night—

Your phone lights up This time You answer.
