Back On The Porch

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I kept your plate warm Right by the sink Seven empty nights Got me close to the brink Your boots by the door Still covered in rain I rehearsed your name Like a numbing refrain [Pre-Chorus] Now the keys turn slow I can hear you breathe All that silence folds When you come back to me [Chorus] Back on the porch Back in my chest You came home late And I lost my rest Back on the porch Back in my chest You came home late And I lost my rest [Verse 2] I stared at the clock Till it bit the wall Every little lie Started feeling tall Your shadow crossed mine Through the bedroom glow I didn’t know love Could shake me so [Pre-Chorus] Now the keys turn slow I can hear you breathe All that silence folds When you come back to me [Chorus] Back on the porch Back in my chest You came home late And I lost my rest Back on the porch Back in my chest You came home late And I lost my rest [Bridge] Say my name soft Like you mean it now We can burn the doubt We can figure it out Hands full of truth Heart full of smoke I was waiting up Till the whole thing broke [Chorus] Back on the porch Back in my chest You came home late And I lost my rest Back on the porch Back in my chest You came home late And I lost my rest
