Verse 1

You keep the porch light burning

Though winter seals the door

I leave my coat beside you

Like I have done before

The kettle starts its trembling

Your hands are cold as stone

But when you say my name

This house feels like a home

Pre-Chorus

Let the old walls creak and moan

Let the dead leaves scrape the glass

I would cross every ruined mile

To find you where you are

Chorus

If the grave comes calling

I will answer next to you

When the whole world turns to ashes
