Hold Back the Daybreak
I'll put the kettle on, let me hang up your coat
You're soaked to the skin from your walk home
Why don't you sit for a while?
I can see you're tired
How was your day?
Mine was okay
It's not worth talking about anyway
Can we stay up for a while?
Forget how hard we're tryin'
I'm afraid of losing
I'm afraid of our bad habits
I'm afraid of falling in the ordinary
mess of mid-week sadness
Are we moving backwards?
Runnin' in the wrong direction
I'm afraid of nothingness in everything
before everything comes crashing
If tomorrow's more than we can take
But tonight, let's just stay awake
Hold back the daybreak
Let's turn off the TV
And get into bed
Gotta work in the morning and it's getting late
Try and close your eyes
Forget it's nearly sunrise
We're talking about moving out, getting sober
Watched the lake freeze up, thaw out twice over
I'll hold ya
Well if this shit's getting old, then we're older
(Yeah we're older)
I'm afraid of losing
I'm afraid of our bad habits
I'm afraid of falling in the ordinary
mess of mid-week sadness
Are we moving backwards?
Runnin' in the wrong direction
I'm afraid of nothingness in everything
before everything comes crashing
If tomorrow's more than we can take
Tonight, let's just stay awake
Hold back the daybreak
If tomorrow's more than we can take
Tonight, let's just stay awake
If tomorrow's more than I can take
Tonight, I'll just stay awake
Hold back the daybreak
You're soaked to the skin from your walk home
Why don't you sit for a while?
I can see you're tired
How was your day?
Mine was okay
It's not worth talking about anyway
Can we stay up for a while?
Forget how hard we're tryin'
I'm afraid of losing
I'm afraid of our bad habits
I'm afraid of falling in the ordinary
mess of mid-week sadness
Are we moving backwards?
Runnin' in the wrong direction
I'm afraid of nothingness in everything
before everything comes crashing
If tomorrow's more than we can take
But tonight, let's just stay awake
Hold back the daybreak
Let's turn off the TV
And get into bed
Gotta work in the morning and it's getting late
Try and close your eyes
Forget it's nearly sunrise
We're talking about moving out, getting sober
Watched the lake freeze up, thaw out twice over
I'll hold ya
Well if this shit's getting old, then we're older
(Yeah we're older)
I'm afraid of losing
I'm afraid of our bad habits
I'm afraid of falling in the ordinary
mess of mid-week sadness
Are we moving backwards?
Runnin' in the wrong direction
I'm afraid of nothingness in everything
before everything comes crashing
If tomorrow's more than we can take
Tonight, let's just stay awake
Hold back the daybreak
If tomorrow's more than we can take
Tonight, let's just stay awake
If tomorrow's more than I can take
Tonight, I'll just stay awake
Hold back the daybreak
