Porch Light Low (Lyrics by 👁️Яeasoизecтоя👁️)

[Verse 1] Bruised peaches at the corner stand

Red scarf loose around your neck

Your hair moves like a long slow wave

And I fold my hands quiet giving you room

You glance my way then turn back slow

Yes you know me maybe not well

I keep my distance let the river run

Wanting your hello maybe more than that

[Verse 2] I'm not the wolf beneath your window

I'm the teddy bear with the foolish heart

Do you remember what I said once

Do you ever think of me in the dark

[Chorus] If you ever leave the porch light low

I'll come when you call and stay when you don't

I'm caught on a curve when you move that way

Dreaming of your linen drifting in the hush

I want the sweetness of your greeting slow

But I stop at the door until you pull me in

You're the only trouble I'd gladly keep

If you let this tender hunger begin

[Verse 3] Rain on the window glass

You cross the street in the late-day glow

I watch the traffic thin

Let the moment go

A gentleman can wait on fate

[Verse 4] Your perfume drifts in the passing air

Magnolia after midnight rain

I write no note leave no trace

Just hope you might remember my name

[Pre-Chorus] I'm not the hand that turns your key

I'm the low tide waiting on your shore

[Chorus] If you ever leave the porch light low

I'll come when you call and stay when you don't

I'm caught on a curve when your shoulder sways

Dreaming of your linen drifting in the hush

I want the sweetness of your greeting slow

But I stop at the door until you pull me in

I won't be any trouble

Just let this tender hunger begin

[Bridge] Let the knock keep its secrets

Let the choosing fall where it will

I've learned nothing like losing

But still

If you ever leave the porch light low

I'll follow the drift of your voice

If you say yes be the river

That tells me where to go

[Final Chorus] If you ever leave the porch light low

I'll come when you call and stay when you don't

I'm caught on a curve when you move that way

Dreaming of your linen drifting in the hush

I want the sweetness of your greeting slow

But I stop at the door until you pull me in

I won't be any trouble

Just let this tender hunger begin
