You leave your coffee by the window
Keys beside the old blue chair
Little signs of you around me
Make the whole room feel like prayer
I was good at keeping distance
Then you reached across the doubt
Now the quiet has a meaning
Every time you’re in the house
If the world gets heavy on you
You don’t have to carry it alone
Put your hand inside my hand, love
I’ll remind you where you’re home
Stay with me, stay with me
When the morning starts to move
I don’t need a perfect promise
I just need the truth from you
Stay with me, stay with me
Let the years do what they do
Every door I’ve ever opened
I would open back to you
We have argued in the hallway
Said some words we couldn’t keep
But you found me in the kitchen
When the hurt had settled deep
There’s a courage in your kindness
There’s a rhythm in your name
Even when we lose the evening
You can bring me back again
If the road gets hard beneath you
You don’t have to walk it all alone
Put your hand inside my hand, love
I’ll remind you where you’re home
Stay with me, stay with me
When the morning starts to move
I don’t need a perfect promise
I just need the truth from you
Stay with me, stay with me
Let the years do what they do
Every door I’ve ever opened
I would open back to you
No grand words, no silver skyline
Just your coat across my chair
Just the way you say my first name
Like you know I’m safe right there
Stay with me, stay with me
When the morning starts to move
I don’t need a perfect promise
I just need the truth from you
Stay with me, stay with me
Let the years do what they do
Every door I’ve ever opened
I would open back to you
I would open back to you
Always open back to you
