Your shoes were near the door too long
But not enough to feel like home
I left the key in case you stayed
But you just smiled and walked away
I learned your steps, the ones you keep
When love's too loud to let you sleep
Guest key in the silent bowl
Held for someone I don’t know
You were real, but just in part
An echo renting out my heart
Not yours, not mine, just passing through
A borrowed time we never grew
You wore the name, but not the place
Now I forget your voice, not face
But not enough to feel like home
I left the key in case you stayed
But you just smiled and walked away
I learned your steps, the ones you keep
When love's too loud to let you sleep
Guest key in the silent bowl
Held for someone I don’t know
You were real, but just in part
An echo renting out my heart
Not yours, not mine, just passing through
A borrowed time we never grew
You wore the name, but not the place
Now I forget your voice, not face
