I Keep the Question Close

Letra

[Verse 1] I found your question on a folded receipt Beside the coffee ring, beneath the passenger seat One small sentence, written in blue No explanation, only you [Pre-Chorus] I turned it over in my hands Like a map without a land [Chorus] I wonder where the lost days go When the calendar lets them fall I wonder if you still know The sound of my name at all Some answers arrive quietly Some never make a sound But I keep the question close to me It keeps my feet on ground [Verse 2] The kettle clicked, the hallway clock Kept its patient little knock I watched the afternoon change shape Through the glass above the sink and drape [Pre-Chorus] Maybe doubt is not a door Maybe it means there's something more [Chorus] I wonder where the lost days go When the calendar lets them fall I wonder if you still know The sound of my name at all Some answers arrive quietly Some never make a sound But I keep the question close to me It keeps my feet on ground [Bridge] If I knew the ending now Would I miss the turning somehow? Let the road be incomplete Let the unknown move beneath my feet [Final Chorus] I wonder, and I let it be A window, not a wall I wonder what is waiting Past the edge of what I call Some answers arrive quietly Some gather underground And I keep the question close to me Till something answers back around [Outro] I wonder And I keep walking on
