[Verse 1] You left your blue wool sweater On the back of my kitchen chair I found it after winter Still carrying your cedar air The kettle clicked at sunrise Your mug stood by the sink I held it for a moment Longer than you’d think [Chorus] If you come by the old front gate I’ll leave the porch light low There’s a place beside the garden wall Where the quiet used to grow And though the years have changed the road Your name still feels like home If you come by the old front gate You won’t have to come alone [Verse 2] The apple tree leans eastward Since the heavy summer storm We tied it back with garden twine And watched it carry on Your letters sit in shoeboxes Beneath the folded sheets Each one a small blue window To the days we couldn’t keep [Chorus] If you come by the old front gate I’ll leave the porch light low There’s a place beside the garden wall Where the quiet used to grow And though the years have changed the road Your name still feels like home If you come by the old front gate You won’t have to come alone [Bridge] Maybe we were only passing Maybe nothing stays the same But I still hear your laughter When the rain taps on the panes And I still save the better chair When company comes through Some habits hold their tenderness The way I still hold you [Final Chorus] If you come by the old front gate I’ll leave the porch light low There’s a place beside the garden wall Where the quiet used to grow And though the years have changed the road Your name still feels like home If you come by the old front gate You won’t have to come alone [Outro] The kettle clicks at sunrise The garden carries on I’ll leave the porch light waiting Until the dark is gone
