Cold Chapel Door

Songtekst

[Verse 1] The rain on the steps Makes a black glass shine I hold your last note Like a match in mine Your name in my mouth Tastes like iron and salt I knock on the door But the room stays dark [Pre-Chorus] If you’re gone, say it If you’re close, stay near I can hear the floorboards Singing in my ear [Chorus] Don’t let me fade Don’t let me fold Hold this line Hold me close When the night calls out Say my name Don’t let me fade Don’t let me fade [Verse 2] Your shoes by the chair Still muddy from May A cracked blue mug In the sink all day I sweep up the glass From the frame by the hall Each shard keeps your face Like a small hard call [Pre-Chorus] If you’re gone, say it If you’re close, stay near I can hear the floorboards Singing in my ear [Chorus] Don’t let me fade Don’t let me fold Hold this line Hold me close When the night calls out Say my name Don’t let me fade Don’t let me fade [Bridge] I learned how the silence Can sharpen the skin How a heart keeps beating When the doors cave in So I light one more match At the cold chapel door If you come back now I’ll be ready for more [Final Chorus] Don’t let me fade Don’t let me fold Hold this line Hold me close When the night calls out Say my name Don’t let me fade Don’t let me fade
