Verse 1

Candlelight traces the curve of the crystal glass so fine and clear in the dim Linen lies smooth where the evening stories will pass in time without fear or whim Your fingers find the stem like they have always known the way through the years we have shared The city outside is a rumor, a distant fading tone today that disappears in the air We speak in the language the minute hand can't translate or chase or replace in the space The pause is the promise we don't have to state or replace or erase from this place The glow on the table is older than any wine in the room tonight so warm The look in your eyes is the only design that can bloom in the light of the storm No need for the spotlight, no need for the stage or the show or the crowd outside The moment is writing its own quiet page in the low glow allowed to reside The clink is approaching like a secret it keeps in its chest so deep and profound The night is surrendering its hurry to sleep and to rest in the keep of the sound The conversation drifts like a leaf on a slow moving stream so wide and so still The pause is the current that carries the dream downstream with the tide at its will The shadows on the wall are dancing to a song only we hear in the hush of the night The pause is the music that makes the ordinary disappear in the rush of the light

Pre-chorus

No rush in the rhythm, no race in the room at all in the glow so soft and low The silence is singing its own gentle tune for the tall shadows that fall so slow

Chorus

Let the night linger In the space between our glasses Where the words find their breath and slow Let the night linger The world can keep its hurry In this golden pause we know

Verse 2

Laughter arrives like a secret it chose to keep and hold dear in the night so deep The amber reflection plays soft on your cheek in the gold light clear and bright in the sweep One story leads gently to another left untold in the fold of the velvet night so complete The table between us is turning to gold as it holds the light so right in the heat We are not escaping the day that we left in the dust of the past so fast in the blast We are arriving exactly where we are meant to trust at last in the vast and the vast The conversation wanders where it wants to roam and to play free and slow in the flow The pause is the anchor that brings it back home to stay with me in the flow we know The city can sparkle, the lights can compete with the flame so bright and warm in the calm Inside this circle the only light is sweet just the same tonight in the calm of the balm The clink is the punctuation the sentence has been waiting for all along in the song The pause is the answer we didn't know we were looking for in the song all along

Bridge

One touch of crystal against crystal so fine and so clear in the air we share so rare And the noise of the world is a faraway line we don't hear anywhere near or there The pause is the place where the real things align without fear or care in the stare so bare The breath that we hold is the one we define right here in the stare so rare and so fair The moment expands like a note that refuses to end or to fade into gray or to stray The night is our canvas, the pause is the brush in our hand we have made today in the sway

Chorus

Let the night linger In the space between our glasses Where the truth doesn't need to be loud Let the night linger Hold it like the last slow dance In this golden pause we are found

Outro

Let it linger...
