Staying Still

Lyrics of Staying Still by Noah Kahan

Intro

We drank and I convinced you

That the wildfire smog was the Northern Lights

Lately I′ve been looking at you harder

Just taking you in

At the callous on your fingers

From the handbrake grips on your junkyard bike

And your boots so filled with water

I mean, soaking wet

Pre-chorus

But you could punch me in the gut

And it wouldn't hurt like watching

You go smaller on the backroad

And I never ask for much

But I hope that Logan crumbles

And gets hit by a tornado

Chorus

Oh I, can′t keep on starting over

Sleeping in a bed half empty

Daydreamin'

All love, must leave, oh but search for it I will

Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin' still?

Are you good at stayin′ still?

Oh, well will you up and leave?

Or will you be there in the morning

Verse

I always hated the sunlight at 3 pm

Where it′s too soon to quit thinking

But too late to change anything

Verse

I'm racking my brain for the one line

That would change your mind

Showing you plane crashes online

Could it hurt to try?

Pre-chorus

But the Charles meets the sun

And the Harvard track team runs

Past my truck, stuck on Storrow

And I never ask for much

But I hope that Logan crumbles

And gets hit by a tornado

Chorus

′Cause I can't keep on starting over

Sleeping in a bed half empty

Daydreamin′

All love, must leave, oh but search for it I will

Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin' still?

Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin′ still?

Are you good at stayin' still?

Bridge

Put in love, put in hours, put in ceremony

As it was, how you were

What was there before me

Nevermind, nevermind, oh forget about it

I'll be good, I′ll be fine, I can laugh about it

Chorus

I try, to keep, on starting over

Sleeping in a bed half empty

Daydreamin′

All love, must leave, oh but search for it I will

Honey, tell me, are you good at stayin' still

Are you good at stayin′ still?

Are you good at stayin' still?

Oh, well will you up and leave?

Or will you be there in the morning
