Verse 1

You leave your blue coat on the chair

Like you might come back for it

I keep the kettle cold tonight

And let the kitchen settle

Pre-Chorus

Your note is folded by the door

I know each crease by heart

Chorus

You’re sad, and I can’t reach you there

I watch your hands go still

If you can’t find the words to say

I’ll sit beside you until you will

Verse 2

The rain has darkened all the steps

Your shoes are lined up neat

You trace a circle on the glass
