[Verse 1] Bum-bum, by the doorway, baby Your coat still on the chair We’re counting little moments Like buttons in the air Mm-hm, you glance and grin I grin right back at you Bum-bum, the floorboard sways When your shoes come through [Verse 2] Bum-bum, the clock hands soften The room turns honey gold Your laugh fits in the corners Like stories I was told Hey now, don’t you rush it Let the evening stay Bum-bum, your fingertips Teach my nerves to play [Pre-Chorus] Oooh, the room leans in And the ceiling starts to spin Oooh, your name in the chord Makes the night begin Say it once Say it low Now watch the whole thing glow [Chorus] Round and round we go (Where you stop, I know) Round and round we go Bum-bum, let it flow Every step comes home Every note feels right Round and round we go In this moonlit night [Verse 3] Bum-bum, the lamp goes dimmer Your shadow finds my hand We trade a little silence Like only we can stand Uh-huh, you hum a answer I answer with a smile Bum-bum, that gentle pause Could hold forever a while [Verse 4] Bum-bum, the window’s breathing With rain in velvet taps Your small, “well, look at that” Fits neatly in the gaps I say, “stay a minute” You say, “maybe three” Bum-bum, the whole old world Gets kind to you and me [Pre-Chorus] Oooh, the room leans in And the ceiling starts to spin Oooh, your name in the chord Makes the night begin Say it once Say it low Now watch the whole thing glow [Chorus] Round and round we go (Where you stop, I know) Round and round we go Bum-bum, let it flow Every step comes home Every note feels right Round and round we go In this moonlit night [Bridge] Bum-bum, the bass walks softly Through the middle of the tune And every drifting worry Falls apart too soon You laugh, “oh, there it is” I answer, “there you are” Then all those close-harmonic stars Begin to line the bar [Final Chorus] Round and round we go (Where you stop, I know) Round and round we go Bum-bum, let it flow Every step comes home Every note feels right Round and round we go In this moonlit night [Outro] Mm-hm, stay right here Bum-bum, stay right here Round and round we go Till morning disappears
