lyrics
You said it at the Echo, mouth full of gin At 12:14, with your silver ring dim You drew my name on a napkin, blue ink thin I kept it in my wallet, pressed flat by my jeans hem Now the kitchen tile still remembers your shoes And the cheap motel key with the scratched-out room blues I found your lighter beside my lemon-green bowl You said, “I’ll come back for it,” and I let you hold You kept your word You kept your word You kept your word You kept your word It still lands here On my tongue like a bruise At 6:03, my phone lit the sink You sent a one-line text while the kettle would think I stood by the window in my thrift-store coat Watching bus brakes flash red through the rain on the road There was salt on the rim and a crack in the glass Your laugh on the speaker, then the long pause passed You said, “I meant it,” soft as a hand on my sleeve And the whole small room leaned in, like it wanted to believe You kept your word You kept your word You kept your word You kept your word It still lands here On my tongue like a bruise I still have the receipt from the taquería line Folded twice in my drawer from that Saturday night Your coffee-ring mark on my Formica tray Stayed through the dishwater, stayed through the day You kept your word You kept your word You kept your word You kept your word It still lands here On my tongue like a bruise
