[Verse 1]
You left your coffee by the window
Half a page beside the sink
I read the sentence three times over
Trying not to overthink
[Pre-Chorus]
Every little thing is louder
When the house forgets your name
I can feel the floorboards asking
If I’m ready for the change
[Chorus]
I’m not waiting at the doorway
I’m not counting every car
I will carry what you gave me
But I won’t stay where you are
Let the old rooms lose their meaning
Let the morning find its way
I’m still here, my hands are steady
And I’m choosing what to save
[Verse 2]
There’s a jacket on the stairwell
And a key beside the phone
Funny how the smallest objects
Make a crowded house feel known
[Pre-Chorus]
I can hear the train departing
Past the houses on the hill
Something in me keeps on moving
Something else is standing still
[Chorus]
I’m not waiting at the doorway
I’m not counting every car
I will carry what you gave me
But I won’t stay where you are
Let the old rooms lose their meaning
Let the morning find its way
I’m still here, my hands are steady
And I’m choosing what to save
[Bridge]
If tomorrow feels like weather
I’ll walk out and take it whole
No more borrowing a heartbeat
From a story I outgrew
[Guitar Solo]
[Final Chorus]
I’m not waiting at the doorway
I’m not counting every car
I will carry what you gave me
But I won’t stay where you are
Let the old rooms lose their meaning
Let the morning find its way
I’m still here, my hands are steady
And I’m choosing what to save
[Outro]
I’m choosing what to save
I’m choosing what to save
