In the morning at the kitchen table
You were quiet and I wasn't able
To find the right words
Without making something of it
You used to say I wouldn’t let you be sad for nothing
Always felt like a marriage
Without the vowels or the promise
Just the idea of always
Just the idea so constant
You know I can get so stubborn
When change is hard and I'm used to the comfort
Even if it's flooding me out from my truth
Even if the lights dimming out for you
Take this love and lay it out
Out in the sun, to dry it out
Now take a look at what was made
Now let it go, we tried our best
Some truth is shown
To let love rest
In the morning at the kitchen table
You were quiet and I wasn’t able
