[Verse 1] You left the kettle by the window The blue cup waiting on the sill A folded scarf across the old chair The room is quiet, but it’s still I trace the path beside the garden Where late September turned the leaves The gate complains in little whispers Like it remembers you and me [Chorus] Take your time, come home slowly There is a place beside the fire I will keep the door unlatched tonight And save the words you might require Take your time, come home slowly Nothing here has learned to hurry I’ll be near the kitchen table When the evening settles softly [Verse 2] The harmonica on the bookshelf Still carries dust from county fairs A paper map, a bus ticket And summer folded in its squares The rain has darkened all the cedar The porch boards shine beneath the trees Somewhere beyond the quiet valley A train is carrying your dreams [Chorus] Take your time, come home slowly There is a place beside the fire I will keep the door unlatched tonight And save the words you might require Take your time, come home slowly Nothing here has learned to hurry I’ll be near the kitchen table When the evening settles softly [Bridge] If the road has made you weary If the miles have changed your name You can set them by the doorway You don’t have to explain [Final Chorus] Take your time, come home slowly There is a place beside the fire I will meet you without questions With the kindness you desire Take your time, come home slowly Let the long day lose its worry I’ll be near the kitchen table When the evening settles softly [Outro] When the evening settles softly You can rest here, you can rest here
