[Verse 1]
I see you in the morning
Barefoot on the tile
Your hair still in a knot
Your coffee cooling slow
You think nobody's looking
When you lean against the sink
And there you are at last
Soft and almost sleeping
[Pre-Chorus]
You let your shoulders fall
Like you can breathe again
You hum into the room
And I hold still
[Chorus]
When nobody's there
You let your heart show
When nobody's there
I see you let go
(you let go)
And I fall for you
All over again
When nobody's there
That's where I live
[Verse 2]
At the corner store in daylight
You wear your brave face on
You talk like nothing breaks you
You say you're doing fine
But back at home the truth comes out
In your socks by the couch
In the way you rub your eyes
In the way you call my name
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't know I keep
Each small crack in my chest
Like a rosary of proof
That you're real
[Chorus]
When nobody's there
You let your heart show
When nobody's there
I see you let go
(you let go)
And I fall for you
All over again
When nobody's there
That's where I live
[Bridge]
I don't need your perfect
I don't need your pose
I love the version of you
That blooms when the door closes
The laugh with no armor
The tear you wipe away
The sigh you never save
For anybody else
[Final Chorus]
When nobody's there
You let your heart show
When nobody's there
I see you let go
(you let go)
And I love you most
In the honest air
When nobody's there
I'm already there
