[Verse 1] We left the porch light on Like we might come back Your shoes by the door My coat on the rack Your hand found mine Like it knew the way Now the whole room aches With the words we can't say [Pre-Chorus] I still reach for you In the half-lit hall Old habits die slow When the hurt is all And I know we're done But my heart still leans Like a screen door shaking In a summer breeze [Chorus] Stay with me, stay with me Even if you go Stay with me, stay with me I can't let you know You were my home You were my fire Now I'm holding smoke And calling it love [Verse 2] Your coffee cup's cold On the counter tile I wash it twice Just to keep you awhile There's a dent in the couch From your favorite side I sit there alone And I lose track of time [Pre-Chorus] I still hear your laugh In the passing cars Every little thing Keeps pulling hard And I know we're done But my heart still bends Like a chain-link gate In the winter wind [Chorus] Stay with me, stay with me Even if you go Stay with me, stay with me I can't let you know You were my home You were my fire Now I'm holding smoke And calling it love [Bridge] If this is goodbye Let it break me slow Let me love you once Then let you go I'll keep your name Like a bruise in bloom A tender little ache In my favorite room [Final Chorus] Stay with me, stay with me Even if you go Stay with me, stay with me I can't let you know You were my home You were my fire Now I'm holding smoke And calling it love Stay with me, stay with me Till the morning comes Stay with me, stay with me Then leave me undone
