歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Dust motes dancing in the light Attic air is feeling tight I found your box of cedar wood Underneath where the trunk once stood Lid is heavy, hinges creak Cold metal touches my cheek Spools of thread in every shade Where all the quiet plans were made [Pre-Chorus] I remember how you frowned When the fabric hit the ground Never quite the words I sought Just the tension in the knot [Chorus] But here’s the love in the linen The grace in the gray The things that you gave In your own quiet way A mismatched button A stitch out of line I’m learning that your heart Was woven into mine [Post-Chorus] Woven into mine Stitch by stitch Line by line [Verse] Recipe cards with yellow stains Smeared by coffee and the rains "Pinch of salt" in your looping hand Things I couldn't understand Why you held the silence close Like a secret or a ghost Now I see the hem you turned For the daughter who never learned [Pre-Chorus] I was waiting for a sign For a perfect, golden line But you spoke in silver thimbles And in domestic symbols [Chorus] But here’s the love in the linen The grace in the gray The things that you gave In your own quiet way A mismatched button A stitch out of line I’m learning that your heart Was woven into mine [Bridge] No apology is coming now And I don't need it anyhow The friction of the years is gone Like the mist before the dawn It’s okay that we were frayed It’s okay that we were afraid The pattern wasn't perfect, no But it's enough to let it go [Interlude] [Verse] I pick a needle from the felt Watch the icy memories melt The parlor guitar hums a tune In the fading afternoon I'll mend this sleeve for myself Put the anger on the shelf Tracing patterns you once drew Finding peace in knowing you [Chorus] But here’s the love in the linen The grace in the gray The things that you gave In your own quiet way A mismatched button A stitch out of line I’m learning that your heart Was woven into mine [Post-Chorus] Woven into mine Stitch by stitch Line by line Woven into mine [Outro]
