Watercolor Strings

Morning breaks on the floor

Your coat still by the door (ooh)

I kept the window open

For a little piece of rain

Let it wash the quiet

From the corners of my name You were in the hallway

Like a memory taking shape I could almost hold you

But the feeling slipped away

And I know we changed

But not beyond repair

If the road turns back

I will meet you there (ahhhh)

So stay,

stay with me now

While the whole world settles down

I hear your heart in the rain Calling me home again

Stay,

stay with me now

We can turn the hurt around (ooh)

There is a cup on the table

With a crack along the side We were never perfect

But we carried all the light If I speak too softly

Will the truth still make it through

I have kept a place here

In the better part of you

If the night gets heavy

Lay it all on me

I will be the doorway

You can leave through safely

No more running from the pieces No more counting what we lost (hummmm)

So stay, stay with me now

While the whole world settles down

I hear your heart in the rain

Calling me home again

Stay, stay with me now

We can turn the hurt around

All the years we could not say Are finding words today (ooh)

Stay with me now

Stay with me now

Calling me home again (ooh)
