(Verse 1) This spare room bed is cold, it wasn't in the plan While you're right there, just where I used to land It's a confusing chapter, a bizarre, new phase We're speaking in a different, kinder phrase (Chorus) And this is a painful, tender, loving, strange and broken land I'm trying hard to hold on, and to understand I'll clutch the unexpected kindness, the unexpected bliss And pray this fragile, hopeful path we're on won't miss (Verse 2) Your hand will find my arm, a soft and sweet embrace A quiet, loving whisper, a smile upon your face We're sharing little moments, more than we have in years Laughing through the quiet, and drying sudden tears (Chorus) Oh, this is a painful, tender, loving, strange and broken land I'm trying hard to hold on, and to understand I'll clutch the unexpected kindness, the unexpected bliss And pray this fragile, hopeful path we're on won't miss (Bridge) But then you'll gently say it, your voice is firm but low A necessary boundary, so I don't forget and go Thinking that a cuddle means the fight is in the past A reminder that this healing is not meant to last And please, you have to know, I'm not trying to beg or score It's just my heart jumps the track, and it opens up the door To every single memory, and in an instant, I just want the old us back once more... (Chorus) Yeah, this is a painful, tender, loving, strange and broken land I'm trying hard to hold on, and to understand I'll clutch the unexpected kindness, the unexpected bliss And pray this fragile, hopeful path we're on won't miss (Outro) I'll retreat back to this room... This strange and broken land... This fragile, hopeful path... Pray it won't miss. No, it won't miss.
