Lyrics
[Verse 1] The bed frame leaves a dent In the winter air One mug in the sink A comb with hair still there Your sock by the chair Like you stepped out fast But the clock on the wall Never told me that [Pre-Chorus] I trace the paint Where your pictures hung A nail in the plaster A song half-sung The hallway holds Your shape in view Every quiet thing Still leans toward you [Chorus] This room remembers you This room remembers you Dust on the frame And your name in the glue This room remembers you This room remembers you I open the door And it opens to you [Verse 2] The curtains are folded Like they’re saving space A grocery list Still waits by the base The plant on the sill Went gold at the edge But the sunlight comes in Like it knows your step [Pre-Chorus] I touch the chair It gives a sigh A little old ache In the wood inside If walls could speak They’d say it plain You lived in this room And it kept your name [Chorus] This room remembers you This room remembers you Dust on the frame And your name in the glue This room remembers you This room remembers you I open the door And it opens to you [Bridge] I tried to move on Moved the lamp, the rug Still the floorboards sing With the shape of us Maybe that’s how Love stays true Not in my hands But in the room [Chorus] This room remembers you This room remembers you Dust on the frame And your name in the glue This room remembers you This room remembers you I open the door And it opens to you
