Key on the table

You in the doorway

Blanket in your arms

Like it's some kind of armor

Pills in a small glass

Water by the bed

Every little detail

You already read my head

You turned this house into healing

Stacked every day with your care

Even when walking is hurting

I feel lighter knowing you're there

I'm stitched up and shaky, but stronger in your hands

Home again, holding on

To the way you understand

You carried the worries

Folded them with the clothes

Called all the people

Answered what I couldn't know

You trace round the scars

Say, "It's just part of the story"

I laugh, then I wince

But your eyes keep the glory

You turned this house into healing

Stacked every day with your care

Even when walking is hurting

I feel lighter knowing you're there

I'm stitched up and shaky, but stronger in your hands

Home again, holding on

To the way you understand

Another white room

Another long night

We don't know the ending

But we hold each other tight

If the road bends harder

If the pain runs long

You'll be there beside me

And we'll breathe our way on

You turned this house into healing

Stacked every day with your care

Even when walking is hurting

I feel braver knowing you're there

I'm scared of tomorrow, but steadier in your hands

Home again, holding on

To the way you understand
