[Intro]
I keep the window cracked, let the cold roll in
Got a full tank, but I don't know where to begin
[Verse 1]
You left your silver ring beside the kitchen sink
I saw it when I poured the coffee, had to stop and think
Your jacket on the chair still holds the shape of you
Funny how an empty room can tell me what to do
I took the long way past the corner store
Counted every step I never took before
My phone lights up, I let it fade to black
Some things don't need a reply to bring the feeling back
[Pre-Chorus]
If you call, I'll answer low
If you stay, then let me know
I don't need a perfect sign
Just a little proof you're mine
[Chorus]
I been moving like the road knows my name
Same old heart, but the rhythm ain't the same
If you come back, don't come halfway through
I got one more honest night to give to you
[Verse 2]
Your brother asked if I was doing okay
I said I'm good, then changed the subject right away
There's a receipt from June tucked inside my coat
Two sandwiches, one umbrella, rain along the road
I learned to keep my promises quiet
No big speech, no need to advertise it
When the room gets still and the ceiling starts to spin
I remember every place we might have been
[Pre-Chorus]
If you call, I'll answer low
If you stay, then let me know
I don't need a perfect sign
Just a little proof you're mine
[Chorus]
I been moving like the road knows my name
Same old heart, but the rhythm ain't the same
If you come back, don't come halfway through
I got one more honest night to give to you
[Bridge]
Maybe we were young, maybe timing had its hands
Maybe every almost was the best we could have planned
But I still leave the porch light on when I drive away
Not for you to see it—just to mark the place
[Final Chorus]
I been moving like the road knows my name
Same old heart, but the rhythm ain't the same
If you come back, don't come halfway through
I got one more honest night to give to you
[Outro]
Silver ring beside the kitchen sink
I pick it up, then put it down before I think
