Lyrics
[Verse 1] You leave the porch light on Like you expect me home That blue cup by the sink Still holding your cold tea The rain taps on the pane In little careful hands And I stand in the hall With my shoes still in them [Pre-Chorus] I almost call your name Then I let it fade The house knows all our steps Even now, I stay [Chorus] Paper moon window You still glow for me Paper moon window Soft as memory Hold me in the quiet Where we used to be Paper moon window Don’t forget me [Verse 2] Your scarf hangs by the door Like you’ll come back for it The table keeps your mark A ring from yesterday I fold the night in half And tuck it by my heart Some things don’t leave at all They just grow soft in place [Pre-Chorus] I hear the floorboards sigh Under my slow feet The rooms are full of you And full of empty [Chorus] Paper moon window You still glow for me Paper moon window Soft as memory Hold me in the quiet Where we used to be Paper moon window Don’t forget me [Bridge] If time can be so kind Why does it hurt this way? It turns your laugh to dust And keeps the shape you made So I stand in the hush Letting it all spill through One small, faithful light On the edge of you [Chorus] Paper moon window You still glow for me Paper moon window Soft as memory Hold me in the quiet Where we used to be Paper moon window Don’t forget me
