So quiet outside
all the windows shut tight
come into the warm dear
your face in the firelight
chorus
don't go now please stay awhile
I don't want to persuade you
don't go now please stay awhile
but go if you're really afraid to
it's only steps, don't tremble
late walkers in the street
come turn your face this way
and pay some attention to me
chorus
don't stop now please carry on
no more talking will mend
don't stop now please carry on
I couldn't bear this to end
we're practised in the art of deceit
we're both guilty you see
she'll never know. how could she know?
I've had this happen to me
chorus
hold me a breath
I'm holding mine
relax and take it slow
we got so little time
chorus
edegl
