[Intro] I kept your note in the cedar box Under the map and the old brass lock (come closer) Say it once, and the room goes still [Verse 1] Your coat hung heavy on my door Rain in the hem, mud on the floor I traced your name on the kitchen glass And watched my breath turn back to ash You left a match on the windowsill I left it there, I leave it still [Pre-Chorus] If you call, I’ll hear it Under the boards If you fall, I’ll catch it Before the dark gets warm [Chorus] Ashes on cedar, stay with me Ashes on cedar, set me free I still burn where you used to be Ashes on cedar, stay with me (Stay with me) (Stay with me) [Verse 2] There’s a low blue bruise in the morning light On the milk-white wall by the staircase flight I keep your ring in a sugar bowl Like a tiny moon I can’t let go The house breathes slow when I pass your chair Like it knows your shape is missing there [Pre-Chorus] If you call, I’ll hear it Under the boards If you fall, I’ll catch it Before the dark gets warm [Chorus] Ashes on cedar, stay with me Ashes on cedar, set me free I still burn where you used to be Ashes on cedar, stay with me (Stay with me) (Stay with me) [Bridge] Tell me the truth in a softer key Was it ever just you and me? Or a spark in the rain That named its own pain I can live with the scar If I know where you are [Final Chorus] Ashes on cedar, stay with me Ashes on cedar, set me free I still burn where you used to be Ashes on cedar, stay with me Ashes on cedar, stay with me (Stay with me) (Stay with me)
