Երգի խոսքեր
[Verse 1] You left the kettle by the window A blue cup cooling on the sill The garden gate was leaning open The afternoon was standing still [Pre-Chorus] I kept the note beside the doorway Though every word had faded thin Some things remain in simple places Waiting for the day to begin [Chorus] So take the long way home tonight Past the field and the old stone wall Let the quiet settle in your hands There is room for it all And if you hear that distant train Let it carry what you cannot hold We are learning, little by little How to be tender and bold [Verse 2] A paper boat beside the footbridge Caught on a branch above the stream The wheat was bending in the morning Like it was keeping someone’s dream [Pre-Chorus] I found your scarf beneath the staircase Still carrying the scent of rain I held it close, then set it down And watched the sunlight cross the plain [Chorus] So take the long way home tonight Past the field and the old stone wall Let the quiet settle in your hands There is room for it all And if you hear that distant train Let it carry what you cannot hold We are learning, little by little How to be tender and bold [Bridge] No need to name the changing season No need to make the small things grand A door left wide, a loaf still warm A steady heart, an open hand [Final Chorus] So take the long way home tonight Past the field and the old stone wall Let the quiet settle in your hands There is room for it all And when the first pale stars appear Keep the kindness you have known We are learning, little by little How to make a home of home [Outro] The kettle hums beside the window The evening gathers, soft and slow
