[Куплет 1] You left your blue scarf on the kitchen chair The one with frayed threads and your perfume there I took the long way past the corner store Where you bought peach soda in the summer before I know the rent is due, the train runs late Still i count your footsteps by the garden gate Some stories end without a final scene But yours keeps living in the in-between [Алдынғы қайырма] I tell myself i’m doing fine Then your old song crosses mine [Қайырма] If you call, i’ll answer softly Even if the years have changed us I was young and you were all me Now the distance rearranges Every promise, every doorway Every word i couldn’t say If you call, i’ll answer softly I still carry you this way [Куплет 2] The laundromat still hums beside the bar Your brother’s window has the same cracked star I learned to smile when people ask about you A practiced little answer that never feels true I keep the ticket from that county fair Folded in a book we never finished there The ink has faded, but the date remains A tiny proof that loss can leave a frame [Алдынғы қайырма] I tell myself i’m doing fine Then your old song crosses mine [Қайырма] If you call, i’ll answer softly Even if the years have changed us I was young and you were all me Now the distance rearranges Every promise, every doorway Every word i couldn’t say If you call, i’ll answer softly I still carry you this way [Көпір] Maybe love is not the staying Maybe it’s the mark we make In the quiet after midnight When the heart refuses sleep I don’t need to turn the clock back I just need to understand Why the tenderest departures Still feel warm inside my hands [Final chorus] If you call, i’ll answer softly No more trying to replace you I was young and you were all me And some roads still lead to grace too Every promise, every doorway Every word i couldn’t say If you call, i’ll answer softly I still carry you this way [Аутро] Your blue scarf waits upon the chair I leave it there
