The World Outside

[Intro]

I wanna stay a while

Forget about the world outside

[Verse 1]

Waverley Station, 3 a.m. 

Running on empty but I'm home again

Seventeen minutes is all that it takes

My feet move faster than my heart can race

I've been away for seven weeks and a little bit of change

But the rainbow I was chasing only led me to the rain

I was looking for the sunshine in the middle of a storm

Now I don't wanna leave you anymore

[Chorus]

I wanna stay a while

I wanna take all night, oh-oh

So hold me in your healing hands

And bring me back to life

I wanna stay a while

Forget about the world outside

[Verse 2]

Closing thе door, breathing you in

Taking my time to memorisе your skin

I hate when you say, "Go follow your dreams"

'Cause I know what that means

[Chorus]

I wanna stay a while

I wanna take all night, oh-oh

So hold me in your healing hands

And bring me back to life

I wanna stay a while

And forget about the world outside

[Bridge]

I wanna do for you, what you do for me

With every heartbeat

Spending a couple weeks, falling in love again

Like we were seventeen

'Cause I'm over saying, "I love you," over static on the line

And breaking into pieces as I'm telling you I'm fine

The second that I leave, you'll be the first thing on my mind

So I

[Chorus]

I wanna stay a while

I wanna take all night, oh-oh

So hold me in your healing hands

And bring me back to life

I wanna stay a while

Forget about the world outside
