Some Doors Close Softly

Şarkı Sözleri

[Verse 1] You left your coffee by the kitchen sink A paper receipt tucked beneath the rim I read the date and had to stop and think How ordinary goodbye can seem [Pre-Chorus] The apartment keeps your careful little rules Keys in the bowl, shoes beside the door I’m learning which of them belong to you And which I never needed anymore [Chorus] I’m making room where your coat used to be One empty hook, one honest breath The quiet isn’t taking everything It’s giving me a place to hear myself I won’t turn back, I won’t pretend Some doors close softly in the end [Verse 2] Your number’s still beneath my thumb at night I watch the screen, then set the phone aside There’s no great speech that makes the timing right Just two people choosing not to lie [Pre-Chorus] The hallway holds the shape of passing feet The elevator carries what we said I keep the parts that made me feel complete And leave the rest where we left it [Chorus] I’m making room where your coat used to be One empty hook, one honest breath The quiet isn’t taking everything It’s giving me a place to hear myself I won’t turn back, I won’t pretend Some doors close softly in the end [Bridge] Tomorrow I’ll replace the broken frame Buy something green for the windowsill Not to erase you, not to keep your name Just to see what growing means here still [Final Chorus] I’m making room where your coat used to be One empty hook, one honest breath The quiet isn’t taking everything It’s giving me a place to hear myself I won’t turn back, I won’t pretend Some doors close softly in the end Some doors close softly in the end [Outro] The cup is washed, the morning starts I leave the key inside my heart
