MUSIC FOR SALE

(Verse 1)
You left your coat on the back of
My chair
It smells like rain and quiet
Despair
We drew our names in the
Condensation
Of a window half-fogged in
Hesitation
The yellow streetlights flicker in
Morse
Tapping out secretes and half-
Baked remorse
(Pre-chorus)
But I’m not the kind to drift like
Leaves in November
If you need a promise, here’s one
To remember
(Chorus)
I’ll stay forever, like the ink in
Your diary
Like the cracks in the pavement,
Wild and unwary
I’ll stay forever, if you want me to
Growing roots in your laughter,
Making homes in your mood
(Verse 2)
Spilled coffee stains on our
Favourite map
We traced out futures in between
The gaps
You collect postcards, I collect
Doubts
Somehow we’re both just trying
To stick around
Your shoes are muddy, my
Heart’s a mess
But we fit together in all of this
Unrest
(Pre-chorus)
I know the world pulls at us, wild
As the weather
But I’ll be the anchor, I’ll hold us
Together
(Chorus)
I’ll stay forever, like the scar on
Your knuckle
Like the tune in your pocket, soft
And subtle
I’ll stay forever, if you want me to
Like the sun in December,
Breaking right through
(Bridge)
Maybe the clocks will spin out of
Time
Maybe our shadows will blur into
Rhyme
But I’ll be the echo that lingers,
Unseen
In the space where your daylight
Meets my in-between
(Chorus)
I’ll stay forever, like a secret you
Whisper
In a midnight kitchen, over cold,
Sweet elixirs
I’ll stay forever, if you let me in
Like a half-finished novel, I’ll
Begin again
(Outro)
So let’s draw our constellations
On this ceiling tonight
And promise that forever can
Feel just right
I’ll stay forever – no matter the
Weather
If you’ll keep your coat here, we’ll
Stay lost together.
