Leave the Window Open

가사

[Verse 1] You left your jacket on my kitchen chair A little blue thread caught in the zipper there I held it up like proof you’d come back soon Then folded it beneath the afternoon [Pre-Chorus] Your name is still saved under an old address I don’t call, but I haven’t changed it yet [Chorus] If you’re passing through, leave the window open I’ll know by the sound of the hallway turning No big goodbye, no promise spoken Just one small sign that you’re still learning How to come close without disappearing How to stay when the room gets quiet If you’re passing through, I’ll still be here Not asking you to fix it, just don’t hide it [Verse 2] The neighbor’s dog keeps barking at the gate The same two notes, a little after eight I pour one glass and leave one by the sink Then laugh at how much time I spend not thinking [Pre-Chorus] Your name is still saved under an old address I don’t call, but I haven’t changed it yet [Chorus] If you’re passing through, leave the window open I’ll know by the sound of the hallway turning No big goodbye, no promise spoken Just one small sign that you’re still learning How to come close without disappearing How to stay when the room gets quiet If you’re passing through, I’ll still be here Not asking you to fix it, just don’t hide it [Bridge] Maybe we were better at the almost Maybe that was all we had to give But I still keep the light above the doorway For the version of us that wants to live [Final Chorus] If you’re passing through, leave the window open I’ll know by the sound of the hallway turning No big goodbye, no promise spoken Just one small sign that you’re still learning How to come close without disappearing How to stay when the room gets quiet If you’re passing through, I’ll still be here Not asking you to fix it, just don’t hide it [Outro] Leave the window open I’ll know you’re near
