Song: A Hem of Blue Leave a little room for me, not the room we used to know. Just a chair beside your quiet, just a place to take it slow. We need not mend the whole of winter, need not make the years agree. If the thread can bear another stitch, leave a little room for me. Song: The Salt Is on Your Side Pass the salt and hear me out. I am learning where things go. You have had a different kitchen, different ways of getting home. Let me taste what you are making. Tell me what it needs from me. There's a table in the corner. There's a place for you to eat. Song: Our Argument About September We can celebrate tonight. We can let the date be wrong. We have got a little supper. We have got another song. You remember what you noticed. I remember what I felt. There is room for both our stories in the life we've made ourselves. Song: A Table for the Weather There is room beside the rain. Bring the basket to the sill. We can watch the narrow river running down the windowsill. Let the garden keep its roses. Let the grass enjoy the day. There is room beside the rain for a little change of plans. Song: The Wrong Platform Waltz I can start from where I stand. I can ask the way again. There is nothing wrong with knowing I am not quite where I planned. Take a breath and turn the page. Find the road beneath my hand. I can make another beginning. I can start from where I stand. Song: The Song We Never Finished We can sing it just for here. We can let the window hear. We don't need a stage to make it something worth a little care. If the journey has gone elsewhere, if the map is not so clear, we can find another sentence. We can sing it just for here. Song: The Quiet Seat at Supper You can rest your words with me. You can leave the story there. We can hear the little kitchen and the movement of the air. There is nothing you must offer for a place beside my tea. If the day has used your talking, you can rest your words with me.
