Երգի խոսքեր
[Verse 1] You left your blue mug by the sink A crescent mark where your hand had been I held it up to the window light And thought of the way you said goodnight The old coat waits behind the door Its wooden button loose once more I mend the thread, then let it lie Some things stay close without knowing why [Pre-Chorus] And every little room grows wide When I remember you inside The quiet turns, the floorboards lean Toward all the words we never mean [Chorus] If you come by when the leaves are turning I’ll leave the porch lamp burning low No grand return, no careful warning Just take my hand and let it show I still know the shape of your shoulder I still save a place beside my own If you come by when the leaves are turning You won’t have to knock alone [Verse 2] The kettle hums at half past five A sparrow tests the morning sky I fold the paper, clear the chair Then catch myself expecting you there Your photograph beneath the books Has gathered dust along the looks I wipe the glass, but leave the frame Some kinds of love don’t need a name [Pre-Chorus] And every little room grows wide When I remember you inside The quiet turns, the floorboards lean Toward all the words we never mean [Chorus] If you come by when the leaves are turning I’ll leave the porch lamp burning low No grand return, no careful warning Just take my hand and let it show I still know the shape of your shoulder I still save a place beside my own If you come by when the leaves are turning You won’t have to knock alone [Bridge] Maybe the years have changed the weather Maybe they softened what we knew But if the road brings us together I’ll make a little room for you [Final Chorus] If you come by when the leaves are turning I’ll leave the porch lamp burning low No grand return, no careful warning Just take my hand and let it show I still know the shape of your shoulder I still save a place beside my own If you come by when the leaves are turning You won’t have to knock alone [Outro] The blue mug waits beside the sink I smile before I even think
