Glass Door Morning

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your coffee cup is still beside the sink A pale blue ring where your hands used to rest I packed the books you never got to read But left your jacket hanging with the rest [Pre-Chorus] I tell the room I'm doing fine Then lose my nerve at closing time [Chorus] If you come back, don't knock too hard The whole house knows how close we are I changed the locks, I kept the key And every door still opens into me If you come back, I won't pretend I miss the way we failed to end [Verse 2] The train pulled out at quarter after five Your last text faded underneath the rain I watched the platform swallow up your shape And practiced saying your name without the pain [Pre-Chorus] Some days your absence feels like peace Some nights it takes my breath from me [Chorus] If you come back, don't knock too hard The whole house knows how close we are I changed the locks, I kept the key And every door still opens into me If you come back, I won't pretend I miss the way we failed to end [Bridge] I heard you're sleeping in a different town I hope the bed is warm enough somehow I hope you find the life you couldn't here I hope I learn to leave you in the past without you disappearing [Final Chorus] If you come back, don't knock too hard I still remember where you parked I changed the locks, I kept the key But nothing ever stayed locked inside of me If you come back, I won't pretend I miss the way we failed to end [Outro] Your coffee cup is still beside the sink And I am learning not to move it
