Beside the Window

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You left your blue mug by the sink again A little ring of coffee on the grain I found the note you folded into four Said, “Buy some bread, and don’t forget the rain” [Pre-Chorus] Small things keep the shape of where you’ve been Even after the door clicks closed [Chorus] I keep a place for you beside the window Where the afternoon turns everything to gold No grand promise, no perfect answer Just the quiet proof that I still hope [Verse 2] The market gives away its bruised tomatoes Mrs. Alvarez saves the last warm roll I take the long way home past the station Counting every train I didn’t board alone [Pre-Chorus] Some roads teach you how to let go slow Some return you to what you know [Chorus] I keep a place for you beside the window Where the afternoon turns everything to gold No grand promise, no perfect answer Just the quiet proof that I still hope [Bridge] If you come back, don’t knock too softly I’ll be awake, I’ll know your hand Bring the story you were carrying I’ll meet you where we said we’d stand [Final Chorus] I keep a place for you beside the window Where the afternoon turns everything to gold No grand promise, no perfect answer Just the quiet proof that I still hope [Outro] The blue mug waits beside the sink And morning has a little room to grow
