[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t need a question or a reason
You read the whole report in one breath

[Chorus]
Through the doorway, I can breathe you in
You remind me where love begins
Not just “I missed you,” not just “come on through”
I can tell you’re you, and you can tell me too
After the workday, after whatever went wrong
Your nose finds the place where I belong
One wag, one kiss, and the old ache thins
Through the doorway, I can breathe you in

[Verse 2]
Some days I bring home a storm cloud
Some days I say things sharp and strange
You don’t take sides with my bad temper
You just sniff and wait for change
I sit down heavy by the kitchen
You lean against my ankle like a friend
Then you press your nose into my fingers
As if to say, “We can start again”

[Pre-Chorus]
No courtroom, no replay, no defense
Just your heartbeat making common sense

[Chorus]
Through the doorway, I can breathe you in
You remind me where love begins
Not just “I missed you,” not just “come on through”
I can tell you’re you, and you can tell me too
After the hard day, after the words fall wrong
Your quiet little welcome pulls me along
One wag, one kiss, and the old ache thins
Through the doorway, I can breathe you in

[Bridge]
The blanket smells like sleep and sunshine
My boots smell like the outside road
The keys have picked up every room here
And the hoodie holds the whole house close
You map the family by the details
The couch, the coffee, the coat by the stairs
The leash comes off the hook for evening
And suddenly forgiveness is everywhere

[Final Chorus]
Through the doorway, I can breathe you in
You remind me where love begins
Not just “I missed you,” now I know it’s true
I can tell you’re you, and you can tell me too
We learned each other by scent and patience
By nose-to-hand and small celebrations
After the worst day, you still let me in
Through the doorway, I can breathe you in

[Outro]
Circle once, collect your data
Wet-kiss proof, the case is closed
Leash comes off, we walk together
Home is wherever your nose knows

[Verse 1] I drop my keys beside the shoe pile You’re already racing down the hall One quick sniff around my coat sleeve Then you investigate it all You circle once like you’re collecting data Nose to hand, official and sincere A little wet-kiss sound by my elbow Like, “Good, the right human’s here” [Pre-Chorus] You don’t need a question or a reason You read the whole report in one breath [Chorus] Through the doorway, I can breathe you in You remind me where love begins Not just “I missed you,” not just “come on through” I can tell you’re you, and you can tell me too After the workday, after whatever went wrong Your nose finds the place where I belong One wag, one kiss, and the old ache thins Through the doorway, I can breathe you in [Verse 2] Some days I bring home a storm cloud Some days I say things sharp and strange You don’t take sides with my bad temper You just sniff and wait for change I sit down heavy by the kitchen You lean against my ankle like a friend Then you press your nose into my fingers As if to say, “We can start again” [Pre-Chorus] No courtroom, no replay, no defense Just your heartbeat making common sense [Chorus] Through the doorway, I can breathe you in You remind me where love begins Not just “I missed you,” not just “come on through” I can tell you’re you, and you can tell me too After the hard day, after the words fall wrong Your quiet little welcome pulls me along One wag, one kiss, and the old ache thins Through the doorway, I can breathe you in [Bridge] The blanket smells like sleep and sunshine My boots smell like the outside road The keys have picked up every room here And the hoodie holds the whole house close You map the family by the details The couch, the coffee, the coat by the stairs The leash comes off the hook for evening And suddenly forgiveness is everywhere [Final Chorus] Through the doorway, I can breathe you in You remind me where love begins Not just “I missed you,” now I know it’s true I can tell you’re you, and you can tell me too We learned each other by scent and patience By nose-to-hand and small celebrations After the worst day, you still let me in Through the doorway, I can breathe you in [Outro] Circle once, collect your data Wet-kiss proof, the case is closed Leash comes off, we walk together Home is wherever your nose knows
