Stay On The Porch

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your shoes by the mat Your coat on the rail The porch light is amber And the screen door squeaks You said one more minute Now the kettle went cold I keep looking at my phone Like it might tell me [Pre-Chorus] Don’t turn that key Not yet, not now There’s a line in the floor Where the hurt falls out Take my hand Let it shake If you leave this room My heart won’t wait [Chorus] Stay, stay, stay Right here with me Stay, stay, stay Don’t let go so easy Stay, stay, stay Till the ache goes green Stay, stay, stay Be the one I need [Verse 2] Your name in my mouth Like a prayer with a crack I kept every small thing That you left in the stack The mug with the chip The note in the book I pretend I’m okay Then I look, then I look [Pre-Chorus] Don’t turn that key Not yet, not now There’s a line in the floor Where the hurt falls out Take my hand Let it shake If you leave this room My heart won’t wait [Chorus] Stay, stay, stay Right here with me Stay, stay, stay Don’t let go so easy Stay, stay, stay Till the ache goes green Stay, stay, stay Be the one I need [Bridge] If you need time Take it from me But don’t make this house An empty memory One more breath One more night Say you’ll come back And make it right (make it right) [Final Chorus] Stay, stay, stay Right here with me Stay, stay, stay Don’t let go so easy Stay, stay, stay Till the ache goes green Stay, stay, stay Be the one I need Stay, stay, stay Right here with me (stay) Stay, stay, stay Don’t leave me lonely (stay)
