Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Morning comes through the crack

Like it never heard your name

The kettle sighs in the dark

And I stand still in the frame

Your cup by the sink

Has a ring in the glass

I touch that cold little mark

Then I let the moment pass

[Pre-Chorus]

And the curtains move

Like they know

What the hallway keeps

What the hallway won't show

[Chorus]

But the day goes on

The day goes on

I hold your shape

Then it fades in the dawn

The day goes on

The day goes on

I call you close

But the world moves along

[Verse 2]

Bread in the pan goes brown

On a stove left low

The radio tells the time

With a voice I used to know

I walk to the gate

Through the wet front yard

The grass bends under my shoes

Like it's carrying us hard

[Pre-Chorus]

And the sky turns pale

Over cars

Over hands that reach

For their errands, their scars

[Chorus]

But the day goes on

The day goes on

I hold your shape

Then it fades in the dawn

The day goes on

The day goes on

I call you close

But the world moves along

[Bridge]

I thought grief would stop the clocks

Leave the birds at rest

But the sparrows cut the air

Like they know what's best

So I stand in the light

With my open hands

Learning how to love you

In a moving land

[Final Chorus]

And the day goes on

The day goes on

I hold your shape

Then it fades in the dawn

The day goes on

The day goes on

I call you close

But the world moves along

The day goes on

The day goes on

I keep you here

As it carries me on
