Alyssa (Official Audio)

Original Song Lyrics by Shawn Westerberg Produced by Shawn Westerberg WORDS Alyssa [Verse 1] You leave your coat across the chair And rain still beads along your hair You tell me how the train ran late I’d miss a thousand trains to hear you say my name [Pre-Chorus] The whole wide world can hurry past I want the small things that will last Your crooked smile, your coffee cup The way you turn an ordinary Tuesday up [Chorus] Alyssa, Alyssa, stay a little longer Alyssa, Alyssa, every day grows stronger Alyssa, Alyssa, you make my careful heart believe There’s nowhere else I’d rather be [Verse 2] You draw a tiny sun in steam Above the sink, then laugh at me I keep that moment like a note Folded in the pocket of my winter coat [Pre-Chorus] No grand parade, no perfect line Could say what your hand says in mine Just let me meet you where you are And learn the map of every laugh and every scar [Chorus] Alyssa, Alyssa, stay a little longer Alyssa, Alyssa, every day grows stronger Alyssa, Alyssa, you make my careful heart believe There’s nowhere else I’d rather be [Instrumental Guitar Solo] [Bridge] If morning finds us miles apart I’ll keep your kindness near my heart And when the years have changed our view I’ll still be glad the road led me to you [Final Chorus] Alyssa, Alyssa, stay a little longer Alyssa, Alyssa, every day grows stronger Alyssa, Alyssa, let the quiet hours agree You’re the sweetest place I get to be Alyssa, Alyssa, I’ll keep choosing you Alyssa, Alyssa, in the little things we do [Outro] Alyssa, Alyssa, when the evening settles through I’m still so glad I found you Alyssa, when the evening settles through I’m still so glad I found you
