[Verse 1] I gave my Sunday to a stranger in Seoul My Monday heart caught a train through Rome By Friday I was saving a place in your plans With three other names warm under my hands I meant every kindness, I meant every call But a promise can grow in the space of a pause Now every good morning comes with a weight And I count all the doors I forgot to close [Pre-Chorus] How do I choose without making a wound Where do I stand when they all trust me now? [Chorus] I can't be everybody's home I can't keep every candle lit I wanted to give the world my warmth Now I don't know where to put it Tell me the honest road to take Before another heart leans in I can't be everybody's home But I can tell the truth again [Verse 2] Your voice note waits while another one plays A laugh from Manila, a late call from Prague No one was a game, no one was a spare I opened the window and let in the air But warmth without borders can start to mislead A hand held too long turns to something you need I want to be kind, not a beautiful blur To say what I mean while it still can be heard [Pre-Chorus] How do I choose without making a wound Where do I stand when they all trust me now? [Chorus] I can't be everybody's home I can't keep every candle lit I wanted to give the world my warmth Now I don't know where to put it Tell me the honest road to take Before another heart leans in I can't be everybody's home But I can tell the truth again [Bridge] If I have to disappoint you Let it come from what is true Not a slow retreat, not silence Not another half-made room I will name the love I cannot promise I will stay while you let go A clear goodbye can still be gentle Even when it hurts us both [Final Chorus] I can't be everybody's home I can't keep every candle lit I wanted to give the world my warmth Now I know I have to limit it Take the honest road with me Though it breaks what we believed I can't be everybody's home But I can leave with care and speak [Outro] One heart at a time One truth at a time
