Stay

There’s a place nobody told me about I get there when the words run out Nothing asks what I have done Nothing needs me to be someone I can leave the window wide Let the evening come inside Let a thought go passing through Without making it come true I didn’t find it on a map I only found my own way back There’s a place nobody told me about I don’t have to earn my ground I can put the whole day down Let it turn without me now And I stay And I stay Till I feel my shoulders fall Till I don’t feel watched at all I have carried every room Long after the people moved Kept their voices in my head Answered things they never said Here the silence lets me be Doesn’t make a case for me I can hear a little rain Without giving it a name I didn’t find it on a map I only found my own way back There’s a place nobody told me about I don’t have to earn my ground I can put the whole day down Let it turn without me now And I stay And I stay Till I feel my shoulders fall Till I don’t feel watched at all Mm-mm, mm Maybe I will bring you here When I learn to let you near You won’t have to say a thing You can leave the day you bring There’s a place nobody told me about I don’t have to earn my ground I can put the whole day down Let it turn without me now And I stay And I stay There is nothing left to prove There is room enough for you There is room enough for you
