Let You Become Home

Paroles

[Verse 1] Your blue mug waits beside the sink A small white chip along the rim I reach for it before I think Then remember you don't live here The hallway keeps your winter coat The hook still bends beneath its weight I learned the shape of letting go But not the hour, not the date [Pre-Chorus] I tell my friends I'm getting through Then lose my breath when someone says your name [Chorus] I loved you past the warning signs Past every door you closed Now every room has too much space For one heart to hold If missing you is moving on I'm farther than I know I loved you past the warning signs And let you become home [Verse 2] The grocery list is on the fridge Your handwriting beside the tea I cross your name out line by line Like that could make you leave me A taxi turns beneath the window For half a second, I look down Some habits don't know they're over They keep circling this town [Pre-Chorus] I tell myself the truth is kind But truth can still arrive with empty hands [Chorus] I loved you past the warning signs Past every door you closed Now every room has too much space For one heart to hold If missing you is moving on I'm farther than I know I loved you past the warning signs And let you become home [Bridge] Maybe one morning I'll wake up And reach for nothing but the day Maybe your name will lose its thunder Maybe mine will sound the same But tonight the clock keeps turning And I am learning what it costs To keep a love alive in memory After the living part is gone [Final Chorus] I loved you past the warning signs Past every door you closed Now every room has too much space But I am learning how to hold If missing you is moving on Then slowly, I will go I loved you past the warning signs But I won't make you home [Outro] Your blue mug waits beside the sink I leave it there, then let it be
