When the Road Runs Out

Tekst utworu

[Verse 1] You left your jacket on the kitchen chair One silver button, loose thread hanging there I held the sleeve like it could answer back Then watched the morning take the color black [Pre-Chorus] I know the door, I know the sound I know the weight of you not coming around [Chorus] TALFMAN, call me when the road runs out TALFMAN, tell me what the quiet’s about I kept your name beneath my tongue A little truth for when the damage comes TALFMAN, don’t disappear again [Verse 2] The old train leaned beside the county line You drew a map across the fogged-up glass in mine Three towns north, then nowhere on the page A borrowed coat, a half-lit station, a different age [Pre-Chorus] I know the door, I know the sound I know the weight of you not coming around [Chorus] TALFMAN, call me when the road runs out TALFMAN, tell me what the quiet’s about I kept your name beneath my tongue A little truth for when the damage comes TALFMAN, don’t disappear again [Bridge] If you’re listening from a room I’ve never seen Leave one mark where the two roads meet I won’t ask you to return unchanged Just bring the part that still remembers my name [Final Chorus] TALFMAN, call me when the road runs out TALFMAN, tell me what the quiet’s about I kept your name beneath my tongue A little truth for when the damage comes TALFMAN, don’t disappear again TALFMAN, don’t disappear again [Outro] One silver button on the kitchen chair I leave it there
