A Place With You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You keep your coffee by the window, cooling slow I read the little notes you leave before you go We talk in half-sentences, then laugh at what we mean Two different kinds of honest in the space between [Pre-Chorus] You say, “Don’t dress it up, just tell me what is true” So here’s the plainest thing: I’m better next to you [Chorus] When the day runs long, when the plans fall through I can find my way by coming back to you No perfect lines, no promise made for show Just your hand in mine, and a place to go [Verse 2] I used to chase the noise, keep a list of every win Now I save the quiet parts and let the good ones in You know the look I get when I’m too proud to speak You wait me out, then ask the question I should meet [Pre-Chorus] You say, “Don’t dress it up, just tell me what is true” So here’s the plainest thing: I’m better next to you [Chorus] When the day runs long, when the plans fall through I can find my way by coming back to you No perfect lines, no promise made for show Just your hand in mine, and a place to go [Bridge] If we miss a turn, we can take the long way home If the words come late, you don’t leave me there alone Let the small things count, let the old doubts lose I don’t need a grand design, I just choose you [Final Chorus] When the day runs long, when the plans fall through I can find my way by coming back to you No perfect lines, no promise made for show Just your hand in mine, and a place to go [Outro] A place to go A place with you
