LYRICS
She learned the names too fast
Then watched them disappear
Left a ring of fingerprints
On every passing year
She wore her hope like lace
Then let it fall apart
Another almost, almost
Breaking at the start
She kept a letter in her drawer
From someone she forgot
A train ticket to a future
That never came to stop
She said, "Maybe next time"
With her hands around her cup
But the next time kept on missing
And the door stayed shut
She waited all her life
For love to call her name
Held it in her hands
Then the night took her away
Oh, when it finally came
It found her out of time
She waited all her life
For love to call her name
In the market on Saturdays
She laughed at second chances
Bought peaches by the handful
And danced in borrowed glances
She painted little dreams
On the edge of every page
But every kiss was winter
Every promise turned to gray
Then you came in like morning
Quiet at her side
No grand parade, no thunder
Just a place to hide
You held her like a secret
Like a prayer she could believe
For the first time she was certain
She was finally seen
She waited all her life
For love to call her name
Held it in her hands
Then the night took her away
Oh, when it finally came
It found her out of time
She waited all her life
For love to call her name
You learned her favorite story
The one she read when rain came down
You found her red scarf by the window
Still tied in a perfect bow
And now the house is full of echoes
Where her footsteps used to stay
But your heart keeps saying gently
She was yours
She was yours
Just one day
She waited all her life
For love to call her name
Held it in her hands
Then the night took her away
Oh, when it finally came
It found her out of time
She waited all her life
For love to call her name
She waited all her life
(For love to call her name)
