Hold the City

[Verse 1]
She was still dreaming
When I woke up beside her
Then she made coffee for the both of us
She was still dreaming
When I woke up beside her
Then she made coffee for the both of us

[Pre-Chorus]
And then I go again at night
Creeping through her doors
And her tears meet the coffee once more
And then I go again at night
Creeping through her doors
And her tears meet the coffee once more

[Chorus]
And in my sight I see the back of the old picture
She’s surfing on the keys of love
Just for a hand to hold her when the morning comes
So she can hold the city before it runs

[Hook]
Runs, ru-uh-uns, ru-uh-uns
Before it runs, runs, ru-uh-uns, ru-uh-uns
Before it runs

[Verse 2]
When the sun falls and her lovers come over
It’s like a needle sticking in her heart
And every taste she gave painted a picture
That she don’t wanna have a memory of

[Pre-Chorus]
And then I go again at night
Creeping through her doors
And her tears meet the coffee once more
And then I go again at night
Creeping through her doors
And her tears meet the coffee once more

[Chorus]
And in my sight I see the back of the old picture
She’s surfing on the keys of love
Just for a hand to hold her when the morning comes
So she can hold the city before it runs

[Hook]
Runs, ru-uh-uns, ru-uh-uns
Before it runs, runs, ru-uh-uns, ru-uh-uns
Before it runs

[Bridge]
She wanna hold me to the early morning
I wanna stay but I got be gone, you know, I gotta be gone
She wanna hold me to the early morning
I wanna stay but I got be gone, you know, I gotta be gone
She wanna hold me to the early morning
I wanna stay but I got be gone, you know, I gotta be gone
She wanna hold me to the early morning
I wanna stay but I got be gone, you know, I gotta be gone

[Hook]
Runs, ru-uh-uns, ru-uh-uns
Before it runs, runs, ru-uh-uns, ru-uh-uns
Before it runs
