Past Lovers

Sanoitukset

[Verse 1] Your blue mug’s still behind the flour tin I moved it twice, it keeps turning up again A name on an old receipt, ink rubbed thin One look and I’m back where we began [Pre-Chorus] I tell myself the door is shut Then some small thing gives you back to me [Chorus] Those thoughts of past lovers, they always haunt me They walk through the quiet like they still belong I’ve changed the locks in my heart, but they find me And leave before the morning comes along [Verse 2] The train rolls past the town where you got off I count the stops, then lose the count again Your winter coat was missing one brass button I found it in a drawer last spring [Pre-Chorus] I tell myself the door is shut Then some small thing gives you back to me [Chorus] Those thoughts of past lovers, they always haunt me They walk through the quiet like they still belong I’ve changed the locks in my heart, but they find me And leave before the morning comes along [Bridge] Maybe I kept every goodbye Folded small beneath my tongue Maybe letting go is not forgetting Maybe it’s not calling what is gone [Final Chorus] Those thoughts of past lovers, they still come find me But they don’t get to tell me where I belong I can leave the door unlocked behind me And let the morning carry on [Outro] Your blue mug’s still behind the flour tin I let it stay there; I don’t turn it again
