You Came When I Couldn't Answer - Mikhail Bennett
I used to sit here by the window
watching shadows cross the street
every set of passing headlights
felt like you might come for me
I kept the kettle warm for hours
like you'd walk in anytime
The days don't wait for explanations
they just leave you behind
I told myself you'd make it back
before the silence learned my name
You came when I couldn't answer
knocked on a door that wouldn't open
All the words you held inside
came when mine were already spoken
I would have listened to everyone
I would have held you like before
but you found me in the quiet
I wasn't there anymore
I had things I never told you
you had roads you chose to take
We were standing in the same light
but we drifted in the space
I wore silence like a habit
you wore distance like a shield
somewhere between pride and waiting
we forgot how to feel
And time kept moving like it always does
it never stops to ask who stays
You came when I couldn't answer
called my name too late at night
Every tear you're shedding now
falls where I'm out of sight
I would have opened every door
I would have stayed, I would have tried
But you waited for the ending
to say what you denied
I'm not angry
just tired of the distance we became
If you ever feel me near you
say my name
You came when I couldn't answer
but I still hear you somehow
in the quiet beyond the years
I feel it now
And if God lets love remember
everything we couldn't say
then I'll meet you where there's no more time
where it's not too late
You came
but I couldn't answer
I was already
on my way
