Midnight in Four Bars

[Verse 1]

Two drinks in

you laugh at your own bad joke

Eyes catch mine

and I forget the smoke

You stir your glass

like you’re keeping time

to a song we both know

but we never wrote

[Pre-Chorus]

You say, “Lately I’ve been scared

to want anything”

I say, “Same

but I’m here, so let’s see”

Your shoulder leans

and the room starts slipping

just you

just me

[Chorus]

Midnight in four bars

and I’m already falling

You rewrite my scars

like they’re something worth showing

If this is too fast

I don’t wanna slow it

Midnight in four bars

say the word and I’m yours

yeah, I’m yours (oh)

[Verse 2]

Taxi lights

painting gold on your cheek

You hum that tune

from the bar down the street

We share one earbud

on the backseat ride

and your hand finds mine

like it’s meant to be there

[Pre-Chorus]

You say, “Promise you’ll remember

me like this”

I laugh, “How could I

ever forget?”

Your head on my chest

every doubt goes quiet

heart to heart

in step

[Chorus]

Midnight in four bars

and I’m already falling

You rewrite my scars

like they’re something worth showing

If this is too fast

I don’t wanna slow it

Midnight in four bars

say the word and I’m yours

yeah, I’m yours (hey)

[Bridge]

Maybe in the morning

this will fade to normal

Maybe we’re a moment

or maybe we’re a door

But right now every second

feels like the first chord

ringing out

hanging on

[Chorus]

Midnight in four bars

and I’m already falling

You rewrite my scars

like they’re something worth showing

If this is too fast

I don’t wanna slow it

Midnight in four bars

say the word and I’m yours

In four bars

I’m yours (ooh)

Yeah, I’m yours
