Lyrics
Full lyric sheet, with a simpler surface.
Midnight on the floorboards Midnight on the floor Midnight on the floorboards Tell me what it is for Bare feet crossing through the half light Thin gold under the door Every step wakes up the old wood Like it has heard this night before Your shadow moves along the hallway Mine falls quiet by the wall And the room feels close and breathing Like it does not want to end at all Do not rush Do not hide This slow house Is on our side Midnight on the floorboards Soft and low Midnight on the floorboards Do not let it go Midnight on the floorboards Stay with me Every little sound Turns to memory Glass still warm beside the record Low lamp bending on the frame Your hand brushing past the table Like it almost said my name There is rhythm in the stillness There is heat inside the grain And the whole night leans around us Like it wants to stay the same Do not speak Do not move This slow dark Has found its groove Midnight on the floorboards Soft and low Midnight on the floorboards Do not let it go Midnight on the floorboards Stay with me Every little sound Turns to memory Midnight on the floorboards Soft and low Midnight on the floorboards Do not let it go Midnight on the floorboards Stay with me Every little sound Turns to memory Midnight on the floorboards Near and slow Keep this quiet In the wood below
