Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Coffee’s cold on the counter Your plate’s still wrapped in foil You said “Don’t wait at the window” But I still watch the oil-stained road Clock keeps clearing its throat Every hour you don’t come home [Chorus] All night Never home You keep choosing anywhere but here I keep talking to your empty chair All night I stay alone Loving you is like leaving the porch light on For someone who don’t want to come back home [Verse 2] Your lipstick’s in the bathroom Your sweater’s on my chair Feels like you left these pieces So I’d think you still care Phone lights up with your number You hang up before “hello” [Chorus] All night Never home You keep choosing anywhere but here I keep talking to your empty chair All night I stay alone Loving you is like leaving the porch light on For someone who don’t want to come back home [Bridge] Did you find a bar with better stories? A stranger’s arms that feel like mine? Did you get so tired of my worries You walked right past our welcome sign? (oh) I’m here with every promise You’re out there drawing lines [Chorus] All night Never home You keep choosing anywhere but here I keep talking to your empty chair All night I stay alone Loving you is like leaving the porch light on For someone who don’t want to come back home [Outro] So I’ll turn off the light Lay your key by the door If you don’t want this life I won’t beg anymore All night Never home I finally let you go

Intimate live grand piano ballad, male vocals close-mic’d. Verses soft and sparse with right-hand arpeggios and low, held left-hand chords; choruses swell with richer voicings and subtle octave doubles on the vocal. Occasional re-harmonized turnarounds into the bridge for tension, then a tender, unresolved final chord that hangs in the air., male vocals
