A Room With My Name

V6

[Verse 1] I drew you a room with a window of blue A shelf for your letters, a chair just for you Then someone came knocking with rain in their hair I opened the hallway and made them a stair [Pre-Chorus] Every wall learns a name Every door takes a frame I keep adding on Till the map is gone [Chorus] This house has infinite rooms One for the lost, one for the returning I keep a place for you While my own door stays unturned So many keys in my hand So many beds made warm This house has infinite rooms But where do I sleep when the guests are gone? [Verse 2] I built you a kitchen that smelled like your June A quiet back room where you could outgrow the moon I tucked all your worries beneath painted stairs And called every corner a proof that I cared [Pre-Chorus] Every wall learns a name Every door takes a frame I keep adding on Till the map is gone [Chorus] This house has infinite rooms One for the lost, one for the returning I keep a place for you While my own door stays unturned So many keys in my hand So many beds made warm This house has infinite rooms But where do I sleep when the guests are gone? [Bridge] I found a small room behind the blue hall No photograph hung there, no hook on the wall I sat on the floor and let nobody in The quiet felt strange, then it started to fit [Final Chorus] This house has infinite rooms One for the lost, one for the returning I’ll keep a place for you And turn my own key in the morning So many keys in my hand One door I can call my own This house has infinite rooms And I’m learning to come home [Outro] A room with my name A room with my name
