lyrics

You answer on the second ring, pajama cuff and red phone glow

My notebook's open on the desk, your name lights up like sugar on my throat

I'm counting Muni turns in my head, you say, "Yeah, I know"

By the time the kettle clicks, you're already awake, already on the road

I hear your keys by the front steps

I hear your laugh through the screen

You keep the spare from my bike lock

You keep the worst of the dream

Second ring, second ring

You always pick up, second ring

Second ring, second ring

You always pick up, second ring

And I breathe again in the dark

You show up in a hoodie with salt on the sleeve from the bay

Gum wrapper in your pocket, both of us barefoot in the hallway

You hold my cracked phone steady while I spill orange juice on the tray

Stanford quiet at four a.m., and your voice makes the whole room stay

Second ring, second ring

You always pick up, second ring

Second ring, second ring

You always pick up, second ring

And I breathe again in the dark

If the whole house goes still, you still know my line

If my voice shakes loose, you still hit reply

No perfect speech, just you and me

Two rings in the dark, and I'm free

Second ring, second ring

You always pick up, second ring

Second ring, second ring

You always pick up, second ring

And I breathe again in the dark
