[Verse 1] You left your blue coat on the kitchen chair One sleeve turned inside out The kettle cooled beside the window Like it knew what we were about I found your note beneath the sugar Four lines and no goodbye I read it till the paper softened Then watched the morning dry [Chorus] If you hear me, turn around I’m still standing where you laid me down No grand words, no alibi Just this ache I cannot hide If you hear me, come back slow There’s one more thing you ought to know I loved you past the break of day And I’m not ready to give that away [Verse 2] Your brother came by after supper He fixed the porch-light wire He asked me if I’d heard from you I lied beside the fire The dog still waits beside the hallway At every passing car I keep your picture in the drawer But I remember where you are [Chorus] If you hear me, turn around I’m still standing where you laid me down No grand words, no alibi Just this ache I cannot hide If you hear me, come back slow There’s one more thing you ought to know I loved you past the break of day And I’m not ready to give that away [Bridge] Maybe pride is just a locked door With a rusty key inside Maybe mercy starts with saying I was wrong, and so were you, that night I would trade these empty Sundays For one hour at your side Let the truth come through the silence Let it hurt, but let it shine [Climax] If you hear me, turn around I’m still standing where you laid me down Take the long road through the pines Leave your anger at the county line If you hear me, come back slow There’s one more thing you ought to know I loved you past the break of day And I’m not ready to give that away No, I’m not ready To give that away [Outro] The kettle cooled beside the window But I keep the porch-light on
