County Line Ash ➕By KOTO
[Verse 1] I left my boots by the door Mud still on the leather Your note was pinned to the board Like it might hold us together The kettle sighed once Then the house went still I stood in the sink light Trying not to feel [Pre-Chorus] But the screen door swung Like it knew my name And that old four-room silence Was a kind of rain [Chorus] Call my name slow Let it hang in the air I’m still turning around Like you might be there Call my name slow Till the dark gives way I’m just dust and bone On a county line day [Verse 2] Your flannel’s on the chair Where the sun hits late A crease in the fabric Like a road map of wait I took the long way back Past the feed store sign Past the white fence bending In the low moonshine [Pre-Chorus] And the radio hummed Some old heartbreak tune I kept both hands steady I still came unglued [Chorus] Call my name slow Let it hang in the air I’m still turning around Like you might be there Call my name slow Till the dark gives way I’m just dust and bone On a county line day [Bridge] If I stand real quiet I can hear your ring In the tin pan clatter Of an almost-spring Not gone, not gone Just out of reach Like a porch step creak Under tired feet [Final Chorus] Call my name slow Let it hang in the air I’m still turning around Like you might be there Call my name slow Till the dark gives way I’m just dust and bone On a county line day Call my name slow I can take the ache If your voice comes back Just enough to break
