lyrics
You saw my kettle on the side Cold tea ring where I let it go Your keys in the dish by the tiled hallway You watched me move too slow You left a chair by the bay window A wool coat hanging by the door You said, “Sit down, eat now” Before I could ask for more You cut the oranges thin Like you knew what I’d been through Didn’t need my mouth to move You knew You saw it first You saw it first You saw it first You saw it first Before I spoke Before I broke You saw it first You saw it first Sunday at half past ten You knocked twice with a paper bag Pears, painkillers, and oatcakes Your fingerprints on the tag You folded my shirt on the bedspread Straightened the lamp by the shelf You knew by the way I stood in the frame I was not myself You cut the oranges thin Like you knew what I’d been through Didn’t need my mouth to move You knew You saw it first You saw it first You saw it first You saw it first Before I spoke Before I broke You saw it first You saw it first When the sink kept dripping all night And I sat with my shoes undone You didn’t ask for a reason You just said, “Come on” You pulled the blind up, let the grey in Put the toast on the grill And in that quiet little kitchen You stayed until I was still You saw it first You saw it first You saw it first You saw it first Before I spoke Before I broke You saw it first You saw it first
