Lyric

I left my coat on

Like I might need to go

Shoes by the doorway

Pointed at the road

Phone face down

But never out of reach

A half-lit room

Still making room for need

I told myself

It was just a quiet night

No plans fell through

Nothing to decline

But I kept the hour open

Like a door I would not name

And every little silence

Started sounding like your claim

Kept available

For a call you never made

I left the night unlocked

And called it being brave

I did not say I waited

I just never turned away

Kept available

For a maybe with your name

I let my friends go

With an easy little lie

Said I was tired

Said I might stay inside

I did not eat yet

I did not pour the wine

I kept the evening

In a shape you might like

It was not a promise

It was not a plan

Just the kind of nothing

I could still misunderstand

And I hated how I listened

For a sound that was not there

Like wanting you in private

Made the wanting disappear

Kept available

For a call you never made

I left the night unlocked

And called it being brave

I did not say I waited

I just never turned away

Kept available

For a maybe with your name

Maybe I made it easy

To leave me in between

Easy to remember

Only when you need

Maybe I stayed ready

So you would not have to choose

Made a smaller version

Of a man for you to use

Still kept available

For a call you never made

I left my whole life open

In a quiet little way

I did not ask for more

So you gave me less each day

Still kept available

For a maybe with your name

I put my coat down

When the morning came

The room looked different

But it felt the same

Phone face up

No light on the screen

Just one more night

I kept away from me
