Midnight Monologue

[Verse 1]

You left your coat on my chair

Ticket stub still in the sleeve

I trace the print of your name

Like it might answer me

Half a drink on the counter

Your laugh stuck under the glass

The room keeps playing us back

On a loop that never asks

[Pre-Chorus]

How do I dance with a ghost in the doorway

How do I talk when the words just fall

Every night hits like the very first heartbreak

I close my eyes and I hear you call

[Chorus]

Say you still love me at midnight

Say you still feel it at 3 a.m

Tell me the moment you move on

Is never gonna come

Never gonna end

Hold me together in hindsight

I’m falling apart in the light of day

Say you still love me at midnight

Even if you’re miles away

[Verse 2]

Your sweater sleeps on my bedside

I wear it just to pretend

That every beat in my chest

Is your hand counting to ten

Friends say I’m better without you

They toast to “finally free”

I smile and swallow the story

But it burns going down in me

[Pre-Chorus]

How do I dance when the floor keeps on cracking

How do I breathe when your name’s the air

Every song sounds like the moment you left me

I turn it up just to feel you there (feel you there)

[Chorus]

Say you still love me at midnight

Say you still feel it at 3 a.m

Tell me the moment you move on

Is never gonna come

Never gonna end

Hold me together in hindsight

I’m falling apart in the light of day

Say you still love me at midnight

Even if you’re miles away

[Bridge]

Maybe you’re out in a crowded room (hey)

Talking like I was a passing phase

I’m on the floor of our living room

Stuck between “leave” and “stay”

If this is over

Then say it clean

Don’t let me drown in the in-between

If you’re not coming back

Don’t call my name

But if you do

[Chorus]

Say you still love me at midnight

Say you still feel it at 3 a.m

Tell me the moment you move on

Is never gonna come

Never gonna end

Hold me together in hindsight

I’m breaking again every time you fade

Say you still love me at midnight

Or tell me to walk away

[Chorus]

Say you still love me at midnight

Say you still feel it at 3 a.m. (oh)

Tell me the moment you move on

Is never gonna come

Never gonna end

Hold me together in hindsight

I’ll carry the ache if you just say

You almost called me at midnight

And you still feel the same way
