Lyrics

Intro

Oh oh

Mmm

Oh oh

Chorus

Wait for the breeze to come home

Where the timber frame is low

Paint is peeling off the wood

Wait for the breeze to come home

Thinking back to the pine tree slope

Thinking back to the thick grey rope

Life was holding its breath there

Life was holding its breath

Post-Chorus

Just still

Keeping still

Sitting still

Verse 1

Lemonade in a mason jar

Copper colored moon hanging over the barn

Crickets clicking

Nothing moving but the clouds above the yard

Chorus

Wait for the breeze to come home

Where the timber frame is low

Paint is peeling off the wood

Wait for the breeze to come home

Thinking back to the pine tree slope

Thinking back to the thick grey rope

Life was holding its breath there

Life was holding its breath

Post-Chorus

Just still

Keeping still

Sitting still

Verse 2

Rusted chains groan

Shadows stretch out long

Heavy air

Quiet is a whole song now

Bridge

Maybe it was easy then

Maybe it was simpler then

Maybe I was honest then

Running out of reasons to leave

Wishing I could stay on the slat

Hearing how the cedar snaps

Everything is frozen there

Chorus

Wait for the breeze to come home

Where the timber frame is low

Paint is peeling off the wood

Wait for the breeze to come home

Thinking back to the pine tree slope

Thinking back to the thick grey rope

Life was holding its breath there

Life was holding its breath

Post-Chorus

Just still

Keeping still

Sitting still
