Late Line
Style: Slow R&B

[Verse 1]
The cord wraps round the table leg
I twist it while you talk
Midnight makes the whole house quiet
Your voice is how I clock

[Pre-chorus]
I could hang up, let it rest
But your breathing keeps me here
So close now, so undone

[Chorus]
Raya, stay on the line with me
Nothing said has to be a lot
Maya could call and I'd still choose
This slow hour is all I want

[Verse 2]
You laugh and the static hums
I lean back against the chair
Some words get lost in the wire
But I catch you everywhere

[Bridge]
No screen between us, just the sound
Just the weight of the receiver
A prayer I keep saying quiet
That you'll stay a little longer

[Chorus]
Raya, stay on the line with me
Nothing said has to be a lot
Maya could call and I'd still choose
This slow hour is all I want

[Outro]
The cord unwinds when we hang up
But you're still wound around my night
