Your hand leaves warmth on the kitchen glass

One small promise, letting the silence pass

I keep the key where you used to turn

Waiting for a sign from a room gone still

If you call, I will answer slow

If you stay, I will let you know

Come back through the open door

I won't ask what came before

Set your coat beside my chair

Make a little room in the air

The kettle clicks, then the house goes calm

Your old blue book rests beneath my palm

Every page has a crease from you

Every mark says what we made it through

If you call, I will answer slow

If you stay, I will let you know

Come back through the open doorI won't ask what came beforeSet your coat beside my chairMake a little room in the air

No grand words, no borrowed scene

Just your eyes meeting mine clean

Take the long way, take your time

Leave the past outside the line

Come back through the open door

I won't ask what came before

Set your coat beside my chair

Make a little room in the air

Stay a while

Stay a while

The room is yours tonight
