lyrics

The bodega clock says one-oh-two

Your black coat hangs by the booth

All the cups are cold and blue

You still say, “I’ll wait for you”

The janitor rolls his cart past nine

Keys in his fist, he doesn’t mind

The door goes soft, then shuts behind

But you stay seated, one more time

You stayed

You stayed

You stayed

You stayed

Past the last train home

Crumpled tickets in your hand

My red heels tapped the tile again

The cab line died by Lafayette

Still you watched my final step

The mirror caught my mascara line

The bartender wiped the chrome in time

Every coat was gone but mine

You stayed like you were killing time

You stayed

You stayed

You stayed

You stayed

Past the last train home

At four-fifteen, the donut shop glowed

Paper napkins, burnt coffee, slow

I turned around, you were still there

One chair left in the cooling air

You stayed

You stayed

You stayed

You stayed

Past the last train home
