Lobby Lights

Lobby lights (hey)
Meet me where the moon looks nice

Elevator mirror, gold across your face
You walk in laughing like you own the place
My friends keep talking but I lose the sound
When your red shoes tap on the marble ground
You say, "Don't stare," then you smile when I do
Champagne fizzing on a wide city view
No big promise, no diamond, no ring
Just one good song and a dangerous thing

If the night gets loud, let it stay small
If the world comes in, let it miss the call
Your hand says yes before your mouth can lie
Come on, come alive

Meet me under lobby lights (lobby lights)
Where the whole wide world turns soft white
If they ask where we disappeared
Say love checked in and left us here

Lo-lo-lobby lights (na-na)
Stay, stay all night (na-na)
Lo-lo-lobby lights
Come closer

Phone on silent, heels in your hand
We run through the hallway like a movie we planned
Room key shining, pulse running quick
But the sweetest part is the almost-kiss
You speak in English, I answer in prayer
Love has an accent when it fills the air
We don't need perfect, we don't need fame
Just one little chorus the whole room can name

Meet me under lobby lights (lobby lights)
Where the whole wide world turns soft white
If they ask where we disappeared
Say love checked in and left us here

Hey, hey, hey
Lobby lights, soft white

You say "too fast" (I say too late)
You say "one dance" (I say two straight)
You say "be good" (I say I might)
Then you pull me back to the lobby lights

Meet me under lobby lights (lobby lights)
The front desk yawns, the band packs up
If they ask where we disappeared
Say love checked in and left us here

Lobby lights, soft white
Meet me there
