Still Your Name

I left the door unlatched Like I’d be back by dawn But morning found your side Cold as the floorboards on Your blue cup in the sink Still got a stain at the lip I stood there with my coat And couldn’t take that trip I was so proud I let it burn Now every quiet room Is my return I still call your name Still call your name I still call your name When the rain falls plain I keep your name In the hollow of my chest I still call your name ’Cause love don’t learn to rest I broke the thing you loved Then acted like it was nothing You watched me turn away While you were still reaching, trusting Now I can taste the shame Sharp on the back of my tongue All the words I never said Hang there, heavy and young I was so blind I let it slip Now every old goodbye Won’t leave my grip I still call your name Still call your name I still call your name When the rain falls plain I keep your name In the hollow of my chest I still call your name ’Cause love don’t learn to rest If I could fold time back I’d come in softer I’d hold your hands longer I’d be a better man for ya But the road don’t bend For the ones who fall too late So I sing to the empty bed And I sit with what I made I still call your name Still call your name I still call your name When the rain falls plain I keep your name In the hollow of my chest I still call your name ’Cause love don’t learn to rest I still call your name Still call your name Till my tired heart breaks I still call your name
