Lyrics

Verse 1

Four months since the phone rang

Winter hit early in the hall

Empty leather chair

Facing the white wall

I reached for my jacket

Found a receipt from July

It sits in my pocket

Dry

Pre-Chorus

Kitchen is quiet

Staring at your shoes

Still by the doorway

Nothing left to lose

Chorus

Golden heads heavy in the garden patch

Looking for the light we used to catch

Every single morning

Every single morning

Now I only talk to the morning air

Knowing that you aren't really there

Counting every second

Counting every second

Verse 2

I forgot to ask you

How to fix the kitchen sink

Rust in the basin

More than I can think

Funny how the small things

Tear the whole house apart

Headed for the garden

Start

Pre-Chorus

Dirt on my fingers

Memory is gold

Holding on tight now

Doing what I'm told

Chorus

Golden heads heavy in the garden patch

Looking for the light we used to catch

Every single morning

Every single morning

Now I only talk to the morning air

Knowing that you aren't really there

Counting every second

Counting every second

Bridge

Maybe you hear me

Maybe I'm brave

Maybe you see me

Seeds in the gravel

Watching them travel

Turning to the yellow

Turning to the sun

Chorus

Golden heads heavy in the garden patch

Looking for the light we used to catch

Every single morning

Every single morning

Now I only talk to the morning air

Knowing that you aren't really there

Counting every second

Counting every second

Post-Chorus

Watching them bloom

Safe in my room

Wait for the sun

Only for one
