Julius On Sunday

歌词

[Verse 1] Julius kept his tie loose By the sink in the dark One blue shirt, one cracked mug And a name he hid in parts He laughed at the right moments Held the door, held his breath At family tables, he smiled Like a candle under glass [Pre-Chorus] But the mirror knew What his mouth wouldn’t say Every quiet hallway Took a little more away [Chorus] Julius, don’t go cold Julius, stay close You were made for more Than a borrowed coat Julius, don’t go cold Julius, stay close (Stay close) I still hear your heart When the house feels old [Verse 2] On the train home at evening He watched strangers hold hands Two men sharing one apple Like a promise in their palms He pressed his thumb to the window Fogged a shape, then let it fade Told himself he was fine now But the lie tasted strange [Pre-Chorus] And every half-done word Sat heavy on his tongue Like a song in the ceiling That never got sung [Chorus] Julius, don’t go cold Julius, stay close You were made for more Than a borrowed coat Julius, don’t go cold Julius, stay close (Stay close) I still hear your heart When the house feels old [Bridge] If you find a safer season If you find a kinder road Take the part of you that’s aching Take the part of you that knows You don’t have to disappear Just to be loved No more folding into corners No more biting back the sun [Final Chorus] Julius, don’t go cold Julius, stay close You were made for more Than a borrowed coat Julius, don’t go cold Julius, stay close (Stay close) Say your name out loud Till it fills the room like gold [Outro] Julius Stay close Julius Stay close
