[Verse 1] You left your cocktail on the counter Two missed calls and a folded note “Be right back” in your crooked handwriting But the silence hangs inside my throat [PreChorus on voices] mmmm mmmm oh!! , oh, o. [Chorus] Pick up the keys and come home to pick up me I’m waiting by the window Watching empty streets I don’t need flowers I don’t need some grand reveal Just pick up the keys and come home to pick up me (oh oh) [Verse 2] Your sweater still asleep on my chair Your playlist stuck on the same old song I pace the tiles Then trace our pictures Every frame says you’ve been gone too long [PreChorus on voices] mmmm mmmm oh!! , oh, o. [Chorus] Pick up the keys and come home to pick up me I’m staring at the hallway like it’s make-believe I don’t want answers I just want your rusty ring To turn in the lock and bring you back to me [Bridge] Maybe you’re stuck at a red light Maybe you’re lost in your own mind But there’s a light on in our kitchen And a heartbeat keeping time (hey) [Chorus] Pick up the keys and come home to pick up me The porch light’s talking softly Flickers as it breathes Leave all your worries in the front seat of your dreams Just pick up the keys and come home to pick up me (oh. mmmm )
