Leave Your Jacket

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your jacket by the kitchen chair A little proof that you were standing there I read your note beside the coffee stain And felt the morning rearrange [Pre-Chorus] If the road gets rough, take my hand I’ll be the steady place where you can land [Chorus] I’ll stay when the easy days are gone Hold the line and keep us moving on If your heart gets tired, lean into mine We’ll make it through one honest step at a time I’m here, I’m here, I’m here tonight [Verse 2] Your train pulls in just after ten I count the footsteps, then count again You laugh and say the week was hard I warm your coat beside the yard [Pre-Chorus] No perfect words, no grand parade Just every promise that we’ve kept and made [Chorus] I’ll stay when the easy days are gone Hold the line and keep us moving on If your heart gets tired, lean into mine We’ll make it through one honest step at a time I’m here, I’m here, I’m here tonight [Bridge] Let the plans change, let the weather turn There’s still a place beside me you can learn Not a borrowed dream, not a passing flame I’ll choose you clearly, every day the same [Final Chorus] I’ll stay when the easy days are gone Hold the line and keep us moving on If your heart gets tired, lean into mine We’ll make it through one honest step at a time I’m here, I’m here, I’m here tonight I’m here, I’m here, I’m here tonight [Outro] Leave your jacket by the kitchen chair Come back tomorrow; I’ll be waiting there
