[Verse 1] You left a glass beside the sink A thumbprint caught along the rim I watched the kettle start to think Then quit before the water sang [Pre-Chorus] I used to fill the quiet up With every answer I could find Now I can let the moment come And leave a little room behind [Chorus] Inbreathiate, let the day come in Not as a warning, not as a race Inbreathiate, soften at the hinge Make a little room inside this place [Verse 2] The hallway clock skips half a beat The old floorboard remembers you I set two plates, then leave one clean And let the afternoon pass through [Pre-Chorus] I don’t have to name the ache Or pin it neatly to the wall I can give the hour what it takes And still be here when evening falls [Chorus] Inbreathiate, let the day come in Not as a warning, not as a race Inbreathiate, soften at the hinge Make a little room inside this place [Bridge] One slow breath against the cold One open hand, no thing to hold The window’s cracked; the curtains move The world comes close, then leaves me room [Final Chorus] Inbreathiate, let the day come in No need to hurry into grace Inbreathiate, soften at the hinge There is enough room in this place [Outro] The kettle cools The glass stays clear I let the quiet settle here
