[Verse 1]
Got a dress in the back of my closet
White lace
Tags still hangin’ there
Set a place at a table for two
But it’s just me and an empty chair
I talk to the moon ’bout a stranger
Don’t know your face
I still save you a space
Been turning down almost and maybe
’Cause I’m waitin’ on a name to say
[Chorus]
I’m waiting on a name
On a hand that fits my hand
On a voice that says my secrets like it understands
Old school love
Slow and steady
None of these halfway games
I don’t need a crowd
I just need you
So I’m waiting on a name
[Verse 2]
Friends say I’m stuck in a movie
Black-and-white dreams in a color-day world
Holding out for a long kind of promise
For a “stay” that don’t come with a “hurt”
I keep your side of the bed unspoken
Soft pillow cold where your shoulder should be
Got a heart that’s a door still open
With a key I’m saving carefully
[Chorus]
I’m waiting on a name
On a hand that fits my hand
On a voice that says my secrets like it understands
Old school love
Slow and steady
None of these halfway games
I don’t need a crowd
I just need you
So I’m waiting on a name
[Bridge]
Maybe you’re lost in another heartbreak
Learning how to tell the truth
I’ll be here folding my tomorrows
Making little rooms for you (oh-oh)
[Chorus]
I’m waiting on a name
On a hand that fits my hand
On a voice that says my secrets like it understands
Old school love
Slow and steady
No more almost flames
I don’t know your face
But I feel you close
So I’m waiting on a name
