Verse 1

You leave your blue coat on my chair

Then tell me nothing’s waiting there

I fold the sleeve the way you do

And keep one quiet place for you

Pre-Chorus

You say my name like it’s a kindness

I hear a door that won’t quite close

Chorus

I love you in the little spaces

Between your laugh and looking away

You give me friendship, I give you all

A heart that keeps hoping anyway

If I could choose what I remember

I’d choose the truth and let it stay

But I still love you in the little spaces

You leave behind each day
