Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left your blue cup by the window Still rings around the wooden sill I took the long way past the market Just to see if time stood still Your note was folded into quarters Three small words and one regret I read it under mango branches And I’m not finished with you yet [Pre-Chorus] If I call, will you answer slowly? If I come, will you leave the door? I’ve been carrying all this distance Like a coat I don’t need anymore [Chorus] Meet me where the warm wind turns Where the water holds the sun I’ll bring back every word we burned You bring back who we were becoming Oh, we don’t have to run No, we don’t have to run Meet me where the warm wind turns And let the better days come [Verse 2] Your sister keeps the old red scooter By the stairs beside the lemon tree She said you’ve been asking questions About the person I used to be I’ve changed the locks inside my thinking I’ve learned the cost of speaking true But every road I take at evening Still bends a little back to you [Pre-Chorus] If I call, will you answer slowly? If I come, will you leave the door? I’ve been carrying all this distance Like a coat I don’t need anymore [Chorus] Meet me where the warm wind turns Where the water holds the sun I’ll bring back every word we burned You bring back who we were becoming Oh, we don’t have to run No, we don’t have to run Meet me where the warm wind turns And let the better days come [Bridge] Maybe love is not a promise Maybe love is showing up With the truth inside your hands And enough to fill the cup If your heart is still a question Mine is learning how to say I was wrong, I was afraid I’m here now, I’m here now—stay [Final Chorus] Meet me where the warm wind turns Where the water holds the sun I’ll bring back every word we burned You bring back who we were becoming Oh, we don’t have to run No, we don’t have to run Meet me where the warm wind turns And let the better days come [Outro] Where the warm wind turns Let the better days come Where the warm wind turns I’m here now, I’m here now
