Lyrics

Acoustic guitar intro

Verse 1

She woke up in the morning

Quiet without a sound

She'd hold her heart in silence

Where my old mistakes are found

She'd watch me keep my almosts

Like counting pennies in a jar

How a quiet heart could wander quite that far

Chorus

She wouldn't accuse

She'd hold the space instead

A lovin steady patience where lonely things are met

She'd press her palms to mine and say it's not so bad

That every loose and trembling thread is patient to be had

Verse 2

She might be quietly sad for chances that I let go

Not angry just a softer ache that wants to help me grow

She'd calm with forgiveness

The places I can't reach

Teach me to open doors

And how to cross the bridge

Bridge

I stay

I stay by your side

I stay

I stay do not hide

Oh no

Oh no

Oh no

Verse 3

And if she were truly mine

She'd be gentle every time

Not counting my failures

Or judging when I fall

She'd give me back my courage in the space between her palms

A promise made of breath and simple calms

Chorus

She wouldn't accuse

She'd hold the space instead

A lovin steady patience where lonely things are met

She'd press her palms to mine and say it's not so bad

That every loose and trembling thread is patient to be had

Outro

So keep her near

Though she is only you

The darkness won't be over

That part is true

But you have stopped running

And that will do

Oh oh

Yeah

That will do
