FRAGMENT 4885
LISTEN
Your face in my sleeve Salt on your skin You shook in the hall And I let you in The glass on the sink The door left ajar I had both my hands But not your storm I stood there still Like I'd break too I wanted to reach I wanted to move I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them So I stay right here (so I stay right here) While your river runs You laughed once at noon Now it comes out thin You trace every scar Like a map of where you've been I carry your weight In the bend of my spine But some hurt gets old Then learns to hide I stood there still Like I'd break too I wanted to reach I wanted to move I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them So I stay right here (so I stay right here) While your river runs If I could steal the ache I'd take it in my chest If I could trade this night I'd give you all the rest But love is not a cure It's a chair by the bed A name you hear again When the hard words leave your head I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them So I stay right here (so I stay right here) While your river runs I can understand your tears But I cannot dry them
