lyrics

I left my shoes by the rice sack chair

Your key ring clinked when you came upstairs

My shirt had sweat from the motorcycle ride

You saw my hands shaking, standing there quiet

You set down mango, plastic bowl, iced tea

Pulled out the fan, turned it toward me

You did not ask, you just read my face

Like you knew the weight before I could say

You knew first

You knew first

You knew first

You knew first

Before my mouth

Before my words

You knew first

You knew first

At Bang Sue market, you bought me som tam

Kept the chili low, like you understood the jam

On the bus home, your shoulder held mine

Past the red bridge, you saved me time

You folded my bills, tucked them in neat

Fixed my collar, tapped my wristbeat

You watched the door, watched the room, stayed near

Like my storm came in and you were already here

You knew first

You knew first

You knew first

You knew first

Before my mouth

Before my words

You knew first

You knew first

When the rain hit the tin roof hard

You moved the bowl, you moved your card

No big speech, no shining line

Just a hand on my back in the blue-tile shine

You knew first

You knew first

You knew first

You knew first

Before my mouth

Before my words

You knew first

You knew first
