I still pour two mugs out
Then forget and laugh at one
The chair across from mine
Feels heavy when the day is done

[Pre-Chorus]
I keep your coat by the door
Like you might come back for more
Every little thing you touched
Still knows what it was for

[Chorus]
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
Why do they still fit me?
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
Turning up my memories

You’re not here, I know
But the lock still won’t let go
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
I keep the door half-open

[Verse 2]
Your receipt is in the drawer
And a note on the fridge door
Half a loaf, half a plan
Like we were saving for a war

I put the plant in sun
You liked it facing east
Now it leans toward the glass
Like it’s waiting there with me

[Pre-Chorus]
I keep your coat by the door
Like you might come back for more
Every little thing you touched
Still knows what it was for

[Chorus]
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
Why do they still fit me?
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
Turning up my memories

You’re not here, I know
But the lock still won’t let go
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
I keep the door half-open

[Bridge]
Maybe I don’t need the trace
Maybe I can clear the space
But your old shape in the room
Still shows up after rain

So I stand there, hand on chrome
Let the silence feel like home
If you ever change your mind
You’ll know where to find me

[Chorus]
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
Why do they still fit me?
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
Turning up my memories

You’re not here, I know
But the lock still won’t let go
Borrowed keys, borrowed keys
I keep the door half-open
