You left your blue mug by the sink
The one with the chipped-up rim
I keep reaching for it half awake
Then remember where we’ve been
We said things sharp enough to stay
Long after the room went quiet
If there’s a road back from this place
I’m willing to try it
Give me one reason, just a little bit
One small opening I can hold on to
We’re not gone, we’re just out of step
A little bruised, but not finished yet
If you can meet me somewhere in the middle
I’ll bring the truth, you bring a little patience
We’re not broken, we’re bent beneath the weight
And maybe we can learn to stand again
Your coat is hanging by the door
Like you might still change your mind
I won’t pretend that nothing hurt
Or ask you to leave it all behind
We can start with what we know
And say the rest without a fight
If there’s a spark beneath the cold
Let’s give it air tonight
Give me one reason, just a little bit
One small opening I can hold on to
We’re not gone, we’re just out of step
A little bruised, but not finished yet
If you can meet me somewhere in the middle
I’ll bring the truth, you bring a little patience
We’re not broken, we’re bent beneath the weight
And maybe we can learn to stand again
No grand promise, no clean slate
Just your hand across the table
Tell me one thing we can save
I’ll tell you I am able
Give me one reason, just a little bit
One small opening I can hold on to
We’re still here, though we’ve lost our step
A little bruised, but not finished yet
If you can meet me somewhere in the middle
I’ll bring the truth, you bring a little patience
We’re not broken, we’re bent beneath the weight
And maybe we can learn to stand again
Maybe we can stand again
