[Pre-Chorus]
No locked door can make us strangers,
No long road can change the thread.
I keep a place for your tomorrow
And the words we haven't said.

[Chorus]
If these walls could breathe, they'd call you home,
Past the miles and the unknown.
When the whole world says let go,
I know the way your laughter goes.
Keep one small light in the window bright;
I'll be here through the longest night.
Some hearts bend, but they hold on tight—
I'll be here, I'll be here.

[Verse 2]
I make a joke to the empty room,
Then laugh before the punchline lands.
Your postcard leans beside the broom,
A crooked sun in careful hands.
The neighbor asks if spring feels near;
I say, "It does, in certain ways."
I save the stories you should hear
For when we get our ordinary days.

[Pre-Chorus]
No locked door can make us strangers,
No long road can change the thread.
I keep a place for your tomorrow
And the words we haven't said.

[Bridge]
Somewhere, you're counting the same slow days,
Making a map from a paper crease.
I'll keep the porch swept, keep the kettle warm,
Keep making room for a little peace.

[Final Chorus]
If these walls could breathe, they'd call you home,
Past the miles and the unknown.
When the whole world says let go,
I know the way your laughter goes.
Keep one small light in the window bright;
I'll be here through the longest night.
Some hearts bend, but they hold on tight—
I'll be here, I'll be here.

[Outro]
Your blue mug waits beside the sink.
I set out two. I let it be.

[Verse 1] Your blue mug waits beside the sink, A little chip along the rim. I tell the kettle what I think, It clicks and keeps its counsel in. The hallway clock has lost a beat, Your coat still guards the kitchen chair. I leave one place beside my seat Like you might wander in from there. [Pre-Chorus] No locked door can make us strangers, No long road can change the thread. I keep a place for your tomorrow And the words we haven't said. [Chorus] If these walls could breathe, they'd call you home, Past the miles and the unknown. When the whole world says let go, I know the way your laughter goes. Keep one small light in the window bright; I'll be here through the longest night. Some hearts bend, but they hold on tight— I'll be here, I'll be here.
