lyrics

Your boots by the door had dried in the cold

A blue mug left ringed on the sink by the bowl

You watched my hands shake on the tram card I held

And asked if I slept when the snow cut the rail

You didn’t wait for my mouth to move

You knew by the coat on the chair and the bruise

On the soft part of my face where I leaned

Like the whole flat heard what I couldn’t speak

You saw it first, you saw it first

You saw it first, you saw it first

You saw it first, you saw it first

Before I could say one word

At Kallio’s corner, you bought two rye buns

Then split yours in half on the paper in front

You saw I was fading before I could name

The weight in my chest and the hole in my frame

You didn’t need me to spell out the night

Or the hours I lost to the window and white

You set down your gloves, sat close on the bed

And let the old quiet sit by us instead

You saw it first, you saw it first

You saw it first, you saw it first

You saw it first, you saw it first

Before I could say one word

At ten past seven, you knocked on my wall

With a spoon on the glass and a thin paper call

You left me a scarf from the hook by the hall

And stayed till my breathing came back from the fall

You saw it first, you saw it first

You saw it first, you saw it first

You saw it first, you saw it first

Before I could say one word
