Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Your coffee went cold twice that morning
and you didn't care
you were talking about nothing
the way the neighbor's cat sits on the fence
how the bread smelled from two doors down
i was listening to your hands
more than your words
[Chorus]
and the kitchen light was doing that thing
where it makes everything look like it's ending
but gently
and i thought, yeah
this is the part i'll keep
(keep, keep)
[Verse 2]
later, rain on the window
the kind you don't need to hide from
your knee against mine under the table
not on purpose, not not on purpose
a song from the other room
one we almost danced to at someone's wedding
we laughed at something stupid
i don't remember what
i remember the shape of it
[Chorus]
and the kitchen light was doing that thing
where it makes everything look like it's enough
and it is
and i thought, yeah
this is the part i'll keep
(keep, keep)
[Bridge]
(mmm)
no need to say it back
no need to say it at all
just your thumb
drawing nothing on my wrist
just the hum of the fridge
and the whole afternoon
still ahead
still ours
[Outro]
and if i fall asleep mid-sentence
with my head on your shoulder
don't wake me
i'm somewhere good
i'm right here
(mmm)
