lyrics
I saw you by the fish market stalls At noon, with salt on your coat Your gloves were tucked in your sleeve cuffs You stood with that same easy throat The winter sun on your cheek was pale The ferry horn rolled low and clear You laughed at something on your phone And I felt my shoulders unsteer No tremor in the cup I held No reason to hold on tight Your face was open in the day Like cups of milk in the light You look well You look well You look well You look well I let you go in daylight At the bakery, the blue trays shone With cardamom and sticky buns You bought two loaves and a paper bag I watched you count your coins in ones Your hair had grown, your shoes were new Your hands were steady at the till You smiled at the woman behind the glass And I was calm against my will You look well You look well You look well You look well I let you go in daylight Back home, I hung my wool coat dry By the radiator's quiet heat Snowmelt ticked from my window ledge And I washed the salt from my sleeve You look well You look well You look well You look well I let you go in daylight
