Verse 1: Male

Your cup is waiting by the window

The tea has cooled beside the pane

I keep the chair turned toward the doorway

As if you might come home again

Verse 2: Female

I fold the scarf you left on Sunday

And smooth the crease along the seam

The house remembers how you laughed here

I wake and find it was a dream

Chorus: Duet

Stay with me a little in the quiet

Though the room is wide and we are far

I will hold the place your name once rested

You will be the warmth inside my heart

Verse 3: Male

The winter pears are turning golden
