Lyric

You got a long day

Sitting on your chest

I know that look

I know the rest

Your hands stay still

Your thoughts won’t rest

Come sit near me

I’ll hold the mess

Tell me what broke

Tell me what stayed

I’m here in the dark

I’m not far away

Stay here a while

I’ll keep you near

Stay here a while

Let your worry clear

No need to run

No need to hide

Stay here a while

I’m on your side

Rain on the pane

Drawing little lines

A yellow dish towel

Hung on the line

Your tea goes cold

Then warm again

One slow breath

And we start in

Tell me the weight

Tell me the strain

I can sit with it

I can take the pain

Stay here a while

I’ll keep you near

Stay here a while

Let your worry clear

No need to run

No need to hide

Stay here a while

I’m on your side

The corner bus

Hums past the stop

You lean on my shoulder

And time goes soft

A porch light burns

By the garden gate

One small glow

Can still feel great

If the night gets wide

And your heart gets thin

I’ll be the chair

You can fold into in

Say my name

If the room turns cold

I’ll stay right here

Until you feel whole

Stay here a while

I’ll keep you near

Stay here a while

Let your worry clear

No need to run

No need to hide

Stay here a while

I’m on your side

Porchlight letters

In the window glass

One calm breath

And the worst can pass
