Save Your Place

Текст песни

[Verse 1] You left your blue coat on the kitchen chair Rain tapped the glass; your name stayed there I found the receipt from that corner store Two paper cups, though we don't meet anymore [Pre-Chorus] I keep the porch light off these days Still know the sound your old keys made [Chorus] I don't call, but I still save your place At the table by the window where you used to take your time I let the kettle cool, let the whole night pass Some things don't come back, but they don't leave fast [Verse 2] Your paperback is face down by the bed A line you underlined keeps circling my head I gave your spare key to the landlord last week Then walked three blocks with nothing to say [Pre-Chorus] I keep the porch light off these days Still know the sound your old keys made [Chorus] I don't call, but I still save your place At the table by the window where you used to take your time I let the kettle cool, let the whole night pass Some things don't come back, but they don't leave fast [Bridge] If you came by, I'd make room Move the mail and clear the chair I won't ask you to explain I'd just be glad you made it there [Final Chorus] I don't call, but I still save your place At the table by the window where you used to take your time I let the kettle cool, let the whole night pass Some things don't come back, but they don't leave fast [Outro] Blue coat, empty chair Your name still written there
