歌詞

You sat by the window

Rain tracing the sill

Your hands held the quiet

Like something still

I pulled up a chair

And stayed with your fear

No bright promises

Just someone near

Stay here awhile

Let the night move slow

I’ll keep you steady

I’ll keep you close

Stay here awhile

You don’t fade alone

I’ve got your name

In my tone

The kettle was sleeping

The room held its breath

Your voice came in pieces

Then found its depth

You said, “I’m exhausted”

I said, “I know”

The whole wide world can wait

Let it go

Hold this hour

Like a small warm spark

We can sit with the hurt

Till it loses its bark

Hold this hour

Let the hard edge bend

I’ll walk with you

To the end

If the ceiling feels low

If the road feels bare

Breathe with me once

I’ll meet you there

No need to perform

No need to prove

Just a quiet heart

And a place to move

Stay here awhile

Let the night move slow

I’ll keep you steady

I’ll keep you close

Stay here awhile

You don’t fade alone

I’ve got your name

In my tone
