Porch Light White

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your jacket by the kitchen chair One loose blue thread was hanging there I held it up against the morning sun Then folded it before the day begun [Pre-Chorus] I keep finding little evidence Of a life that made more sense [Chorus] If you come back, knock twice I’ll leave the porch light white No questions waiting at the door No keeping score anymore If you come back, say my name We don’t have to start the same Just bring the truth you couldn’t say And I’ll meet you halfway [Verse 2] The neighbor’s dog still runs to our gate The mail arrives addressed to yesterday I changed the clock above the sink But every hour still makes me think [Pre-Chorus] Maybe letting go is not The same as losing what we’ve got [Chorus] If you come back, knock twice I’ll leave the porch light white No questions waiting at the door No keeping score anymore If you come back, say my name We don’t have to start the same Just bring the truth you couldn’t say And I’ll meet you halfway [Bridge] I won’t promise we can mend it I won’t pretend I understand But there’s a space beside the window And a warm place for your hands [Final Chorus] If you come back, knock twice I’ll leave the porch light white No questions waiting at the door No keeping score anymore If you come back, say my name We don’t have to start the same Just bring the truth you couldn’t say And I’ll meet you halfway [Outro] Knock twice I’ll meet you halfway
