Mended Blue Jacket

You came in late

With rain on your sleeve

And that blue jacket

I still can’t leave

You smiled like trouble

In a good kind way

My whole week changed

In one glance your way

Now every small thing

Feels new again

My heart goes quiet

Then starts to spin

I didn’t plan this

But here you are

Right in the middle

Of who you are

Stay with me, stay with me

My hands still shake

Stay with me, stay with me

You’re my favorite mistake

Hold me close, hold me close

Till the night turns gold

Stay with me, stay with me

I don’t want to let you go

Your coffee cup

On the edge of the sink

Your shoes by the door

Make my hard day think

You laugh so easy

Like you know my name

And every old scar

Starts fading the same

Now every small thing

Feels new again

My heart goes quiet

Then starts to spin

I didn’t plan this

But here you are

Right in the middle

Of who you are

Stay with me, stay with me

My hands still shake

Stay with me, stay with me

You’re my favorite mistake

Hold me close, hold me close

Till the night turns gold

Stay with me, stay with me

I don’t want to let you go

If the world leans hard

I’ll lean too

I was doing fine

Till I found you

So take my hand

And don’t look back

We can make a home

Out of what we have

Stay with me, stay with me

My hands still shake

Stay with me, stay with me

You’re my favorite mistake

Hold me close, hold me close

Till the night turns gold

Stay with me, stay with me

I don’t want to let you go
