Yea to My Lost

מילים

[Verse 1] Your blue cup’s still beside the sink A paper list curls at the edge I found your note beneath the keys The ink runs where the rain got in [Pre-Chorus] I held the door against the wind As if you might come through again [Chorus] Yea to my lost, to the names I still keep To the parts of your voice that arrive in my sleep I won’t call it a home, I won’t call it goodbye I’ll carry what mattered and let the rest lie Yea to my lost, and the love that remains [Verse 2] The garden leans toward afternoon Your rosemary survived the frost I cut a sprig and set it down Beside the photograph we lost [Pre-Chorus] Some days I speak into the room Some days the quiet answers too [Chorus] Yea to my lost, to the names I still keep To the parts of your voice that arrive in my sleep I won’t call it a home, I won’t call it goodbye I’ll carry what mattered and let the rest lie Yea to my lost, and the love that remains [Bridge] If I could give you one last thing It wouldn’t be a grand goodbye Just Sunday light across the table And one more hour passing by [Final Chorus] Yea to my lost, to the names I still keep To the parts of your voice that arrive in my sleep I won’t call it a home, I won’t call it goodbye I’ll carry what mattered and let the rest lie Yea to my lost, I can breathe through the pain Yea to my lost, and the love that remains [Outro] The blue cup stays beside the sink The morning comes; I let it in
