Lyrics
[Verse 1]
[F1]
I still see your shoes
by the door
mud on the soles
from that last storm
Your laugh in the hall
your keys in the bowl
the dent in the couch
where you used to fold
[F2]
I kept your old note
in my coat
saying you’d be back
when the sky got cold
But the house held its breath
and the phone stayed still
and I learned the shape
of a broken will
[Pre-Chorus]
We knew the dark
we knew the signs
the borrowed hours
the shaking lines
I called your name
into the night
like that could turn
the wrong to right
[Chorus]
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
I can’t let them go
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
that’s the only road
If I close my eyes
I still find you there
laughing through the smoke
like you were always fair
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
don’t let me go
[Verse 2]
[F1]
I hate what stole you
I hate that room
I hate the way
it made a home in you
[F2]
I loved you harder
than I knew how
I’d have given my pulse
if it mattered now
And I keep your pictures
turned to the wall
like if I look away
I won’t lose it all
Your hand on my cheek
in the grocery light
you were still so sweet
in the middle of the fight
[Pre-Chorus]
We knew the dark
we knew the signs
the borrowed hours
the shaking lines
I called your name
into the night
like that could turn
the wrong to right
[Chorus]
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
I can’t let them go
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
that’s the only road
If I close my eyes
I still find you there
laughing through the smoke
like you were always fair
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
don’t let me go
[Bridge]
[F2]
If I could trade
one breath for yours
I’d still stay here
at your front door
[F1]
I want to reach
where you disappeared
but love can’t follow
what wasn’t spared
Both of us
in the afterglow
you in the dark
and me below
[Final Chorus]
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
I can’t let them go
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
that’s the only road
If I close my eyes
I still find you there
laughing through the smoke
like you were always fair
Hold me in the good parts
hold me in the good parts
don’t let me go
