Fender Heart

You left your cap on my chair

Red thread, coffee stain

I keep it by the keys

Like a name I can't say

You laugh with your whole face

I catch it in the hall

Now your shoes by the door

Feel bigger than my wall

And I know, I know

I act too cool

But your hand on my sleeve

Makes a fool out of me

Stay in my frame

Stay in my frame

You hit like a flame

Stay in my frame

My old bruise softens

When you call my name

Stay in my frame

Stay in my frame

We split one cheap slice

On the hood of your car

Your ring on the dash

Like a dime in the dark

You talk about leaving

I hear it like rain

But you lean in close

And I lose my name

And I know, I know

I act too cool

But your hand on my sleeve

Makes a fool out of me

Stay in my frame

Stay in my frame

You hit like a flame

Stay in my frame

My old bruise softens

When you call my name

Stay in my frame

Stay in my frame

If the night goes thin

And the floorboard creaks

I still find your face

In the edges of sleep

Take my rough edges

Take my worn-out shame

I don't need perfect

I just need your frame

Stay in my frame

Stay in my frame

You hit like a flame

Stay in my frame

My old bruise softens

When you call my name

Stay in my frame

Stay in my frame
