Text
[Verse 1]
You left your blue mug by the sink
A paper list beside the keys
I read the things you meant to do
And let the quiet answer me
[Pre-Chorus]
The train goes past the window frame
The kettle clicks, the room stays still
I thought that time would make it clear
But time just teaches me to feel
[Chorus]
I’m learning how to leave a little space
For all the words we didn’t get to say
Your name still finds me in the ordinary
In folded shirts and Saturdays
I won’t pretend the hurt is gone away
I’ll carry what was good and let it change
One day at a time, one open door
I’m learning how to live a little more
[Verse 2]
Your jacket’s on the chair upstairs
The sleeve is turned the way you wore it
I take it down, then change my mind
Some things need time before you sort them
[Pre-Chorus]
The train goes past the window frame
A neighbor laughs out in the hall
I thought that healing meant forgetting
Now I know it means I keep it all
[Chorus]
I’m learning how to leave a little space
For all the words we didn’t get to say
Your name still finds me in the ordinary
In folded shirts and Saturdays
I won’t pretend the hurt is gone away
I’ll carry what was good and let it change
One day at a time, one open door
I’m learning how to live a little more
[Bridge]
If I could send one note back then
I’d say the small things count the most
The grocery bags, the late replies
The way you always saved me toast
[Final Chorus]
I’m learning how to leave a little space
For all the words we didn’t get to say
Your name still finds me in the ordinary
In folded shirts and Saturdays
I won’t pretend the hurt is gone away
I’ll carry what was good and let it change
One day at a time, one open door
I’m learning how to live a little more
[Outro]
One day at a time
A little more
