She had a morning flight, bag already packed
One drink at the hotel bar before she headed back
Two weeks of sun and saltwater, all of it good—
Almost time to get back to something like real life
He was just somebody talking on the stool beside her
Nothing she was looking for, nothing she was chasing
She looked at her watch—then looked at him—
She stays for one more
One more never hurt nobody
She stays for one more
And that's all it takes sometimes
She got home alright—lasted about a week
Something about the island kept coming up in her sleep
She told herself it was the water, the way the light hit the reef—
Didn't say his name out loud before she'd booked the flight
She called it one more week of sunshine, told her friends she'd be right back—
Packed a little lighter than she did the time before
She stays for one more
One more never hurt nobody
She stays for one more
And that's all it takes sometimes
She's got a coffee habit on the back porch most mornings
Fifteen years of watching how the light comes off the water
He leans in the doorway, asks if she needs anything—
She holds her cup up—"one more, if you've got it"
She knows exactly what that means now
Knew it somewhere in the middle of it all
You don't walk into a life—
You stay into one
One drink, one night, one season at a time
Nobody sees the door close behind them
It just does
She stays for one more
One more never hurt nobody
She stays for one more
And that's all it takes sometimes
One more morning she didn't leave—
She stays for one more
Everything she has is everything she chose
She stays for one more
One more…
That's all it takes…
One more…
