[Verse 1] You leave the kettle singing By the chipped blue cup A paper moon of lemon peel Curled where you gave up I count the little mercies You never think to name The door left half-unlatched for me The candle without flame [Pre-Chorus] You look away too slowly Like you want me to know There are rooms inside your silence Where only I can go [Chorus] Come closer, don't explain Let the quiet choose our names Your hand finds mine beneath the table And the whole night turns unstable Come closer, stay unknown Make a country of your own If I lose my way inside you I will call it coming home [Verse 2] The rain has marked the window With a map we cannot read You trace a road to nowhere Then draw it back to me A neighbor's radio falters On a song from years ago You smile as if remembering A place I almost know [Pre-Chorus] You look away too slowly Like you want me to know There are rooms inside your silence Where only I can go [Chorus] Come closer, don't explain Let the quiet choose our names Your hand finds mine beneath the table And the whole night turns unstable Come closer, stay unknown Make a country of your own If I lose my way inside you I will call it coming home [Bridge] No promise in the morning No vow beneath the door Just the blue cup, the rain, your shoulder And wanting nothing more [Final Chorus] Come closer, don't explain Let the quiet choose our names Your hand finds mine beneath the table And the whole night turns unstable Come closer, stay unknown Make a country of your own If I lose my way inside you I will call it coming home [Outro] The kettle cools to silence The room forgets the rain You leave the door half-open And I come back again
