I Name the Room

V6

[Verse 1] I lose the thread halfway through the day A room full of doors, and I forget the way I count the cracks beside the kitchen sink Try to catch the thought before it slips from reach [Pre-Chorus] Then one small thing holds still Your note folded on the sill “Come back to what you know” I read it slow [Chorus] When I get lost inside my mind I follow one true thing at a time The kettle clicks, the window shakes I name the room, I feel the floor beneath me When every thought runs out of line I take your hand and borrow mine No map, no answer all at once Just one next step, and then another [Verse 2] The bus stop sign is bent above the road I watch the number change, let the minutes go You tell me what the afternoon was like I find my place again in your reply [Pre-Chorus] A breath against the glass A little room for this to pass I don’t have to know The whole way home [Chorus] When I get lost inside my mind I follow one true thing at a time The kettle clicks, the window shakes I name the room, I feel the floor beneath me When every thought runs out of line I take your hand and borrow mine No map, no answer all at once Just one next step, and then another [Bridge] If I can’t see beyond the bend Stay close, don’t make me understand Say my name, then let it land I’m here, I’m here, I’m here again [Chorus] When I get lost inside my mind I follow one true thing at a time The kettle clicks, the window shakes I name the room, I feel the floor beneath me When every thought runs out of line I take your hand and borrow mine No map, no answer all at once Just one next step, and then another [Outro] One next step Then another I’m here again
