This Little Hour

V6

[Verse 1] Dust rests on the blue atlas A pencil rolls beneath the chair Morning cuts across the desk And finds the answer waiting there [Pre-Chorus] You leave the window halfway open Paper turns without a sound I keep the sentence unfinished So the room can hold it now [Chorus] Stay where the sunlight reaches Stay till the page lies flat Nothing here is asking for forever Just this little hour intact [Verse 2] A glass leaves a ring on the notebook The kettle clicks and cools Your sweater hangs beside the doorway Like it still remembers you [Bridge] Count the squares along the curtain One, two, three, then lose the thread Some things become clearer When they are left unsaid [Chorus] Stay where the sunlight reaches Stay till the page lies flat Nothing here is asking for forever Just this little hour intact [Outro] The pencil stops beneath the chair The room grows wide and clear I close the book without a bookmark And keep the morning here
