Lyrics
Description
I’ll patch the porch light, learn your turning points, be the c Do not mention sound effects or instruments in the lyrics
Kitchen light puddles on a dented stool, cigarette ash like lost maps on the tray,
Your photographs’ corners curl from being handled, thumbprints of better days.
There’s a bottle by the basin half full, not the headline, just a weather clue,
I left the back door open that night, and the cold slipped in where you used to move.
I watched the clock shoot midnight into pieces, heard a porch swing sigh your name,
I should’ve picked up when your silence called, and maybe none of this would’ve changed.
You’re my everything, don’t let this be the end, say you’ll stay, let me learn to bend.
I’ll miss the 3 a.m. text from your mother when you needed hands, not a hushed reply,
Words spilled out the whiskey-tongued and reckless, I painted truths with careless lies,
I slammed the truck door in a parking lot, your patience in the passenger seat shook,
Left you in the glow of a busted porch light, and I never fixed what I broke.
You carried coffee to the neighbor’s kid, I counted my mistakes instead,
If I could walk back every crooked word, I’d stitch the nights you spent in bed.
You’re my everything, don’t let this be the end, say you’ll stay, let me learn to bend.
I’ll trade my last bottle for a Sunday morning with you, pancakes taped for quiet news,
I’ll swap a 12’ step bug apology for your small safe hands that steady my loose shoes,
I’ll catch the porch light, learn your turning point, be the quiet.
I’ll trade my last bottle for a Sunday morning with you, pancakes taped for quiet news,
I’ll swap a 12’ step bug apology for your small safe hands that steady my loose shoes,
I’ll catch the porch light, learn your turning point, be the quiet.
I’ll trade my last bottle for a Sunday morning with you, pancakes taped for quiet news,
I’ll swap a 12’ step bug apology for your small safe hands that steady my loose shoes,
I’ll catch the porch light, learn your turning point, be the quiet.
