The Coffee Ring

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] You left your coffee by the window Cold ring on the wooden sill I kept the note beneath the sugar Like a promise standing still [Pre-Chorus] Every room remembers your footsteps Mine still turns when the floorboards speak [Chorus] If you come back, come back honest No borrowed words, no alibis I can meet you at the doorway But I won't disappear inside If you come back, come back slowly Let the quiet tell us why I still have a place beside me But I won't beg you to arrive [Verse 2] Your blue jacket hangs behind me Though I swore I'd give it away The pocket holds a train receipt From a town we missed that day [Pre-Chorus] I have learned the shape of leaving I have learned what love can keep [Chorus] If you come back, come back honest No borrowed words, no alibis I can meet you at the doorway But I won't disappear inside If you come back, come back slowly Let the quiet tell us why I still have a place beside me But I won't beg you to arrive [Bridge] Maybe we were only weather Passing through a borrowed town Maybe this is how I save us: Put the heavy pieces down [Final Chorus] If you come back, come back honest Bring the truth and leave the pride I can meet you at the doorway With my whole heart on my side If you come back, come back slowly Let the quiet tell us why I still have a place beside me But I won't beg you to arrive [Outro] The coffee ring is fading And the window's open wide
