Lyric

Rain on your side

Of the city tonight

I almost asked

If you got home fine

My hand found the phone

Before my mind

Old habits move

Like they still have rights

I knew your coat

I knew your cold

I knew the street

You hated alone

But knowing once

Is not a key

To walk back in

Where I should not be

I call it care

When I get scared

But fear can wear

A gentle face

So I pull back

Before I blur

The quiet line

Around your days

I can care from here

With my hands held down

Let your morning move

Without my shadow now

I can keep this ache

On my own side

Let the light stay yours

Let the door stay wide

I can love you still

And not arrive

I can leave your peace

Alive

I saw your name

In a small blue square

Smiling somewhere

I could not enter

Someone had taken

The seat I knew

And I was glad

Then wounded too

You looked lighter

Than I remembered

Like no one had to

Guard the weather

I closed the screen

And let it sleep

Some good news cuts

When it is not for me

I used to think

That staying near

Was proof enough

That love was clean

But I was looking

For my place

Inside a life

That had been freed

I can care from here

With my hands held down

Let your morning move

Without my shadow now

I can keep this ache

On my own side

Let the light stay yours

Let the door stay wide

I can love you still

And not arrive

I can leave your peace

Alive

If your hands are full

They are not asking

For the shape

Of mine

If your road is hard

It is still yours

Not a place

For me to shine

I will not turn

My worry into

A reason

To be seen

I can be kind

By staying out

Of what you built

After me

I can care from here

With my hands held down

Let your morning move

Without my shadow now

I can keep this ache

On my own side

Let the light stay yours

Let the door stay wide

I can love you still

And not arrive

I can leave your peace

Alive

The rain keeps going

Past your street

I let it fall

Without my name

My hands stay quiet

On the table

Love does not always

Need a place
