When You Stay Close

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] Your coat is hanging by the kitchen door A paper list lies curled beside the phone You look at me, then set the kettle down And somehow I don't feel alone [Pre-Chorus] No grand speech, no perfect phrase Just your hand finding mine [Chorus] When you stay close, the room feels wide The hardest hours loosen their hold One quiet look, and I can tell I'm not carrying it alone [Verse 2] The rain has left its silver on the glass The bread is warm, the day is nearly done You pass me the chipped blue cup I like And all at once, the worry's gone [Pre-Chorus] No grand speech, no perfect phrase Just your hand finding mine [Chorus] When you stay close, the room feels wide The hardest hours loosen their hold One quiet look, and I can tell I'm not carrying it alone [Bridge] If all the words get lost somewhere If every answer takes its time I'll read the kindness in your face And meet you there, line by line [Final Chorus] When you stay close, the room feels wide The hardest hours loosen their hold One quiet look, and I can tell I'm not carrying it alone I'm not carrying it alone [Outro] Your hand finds mine And I am home
