[Verse 1]
You leave your coffee by the window
Same blue mug, the handle turned my way
I find your jacket on the chair back
And feel the words I never had to say
[Pre-Chorus]
When the day gets heavy on your shoulders
Come and put your tired heart in mine
I don't need a perfect kind of promise
Just your hand arriving here on time
[Chorus]
Stay close, let the room grow quiet
Let me learn the shape of you again
No grand words, just your head beside me
No beginning, no imagined end
If the whole world asks us where we're going
We can let tomorrow wait outside
Stay close, I have all I need here
When your heartbeat settles next to mine
[Verse 2]
You laugh at the rain against the glass pane
I make room beneath the old wool throw
The kettle hums beside the dishes
And suddenly this feels like home
[Pre-Chorus]
There are days we won't have all the answers
There are nights the road will lose its line
But I'll meet you in the middle slowly
With this steady little heart of mine
[Chorus]
Stay close, let the room grow quiet
Let me learn the shape of you again
No grand words, just your head beside me
No beginning, no imagined end
If the whole world asks us where we're going
We can let tomorrow wait outside
Stay close, I have all I need here
When your heartbeat settles next to mine
[Bridge]
And if the years put silver in our mornings
If the house grows still when summer ends
I'll remember this—your fingers finding mine
Like coming home to my best friend
[Final Chorus]
Stay close, let the room grow quiet
Let me learn the shape of you again
No grand words, just your head beside me
Every breath becoming more than then
If the whole world asks us where we're going
We can let tomorrow wait outside
Stay close, I have all I need here
When your heartbeat settles next to mine
[Outro]
Stay close
Your heartbeat next to mine
