[Куплет 1] You left your blue mug by the sink A little ring where the coffee had been I held it up to the window light And thought of all we didn't say that night [Алдынғы қайырма] The garden gate still leans your way The sparrows find the crumbs we laid I hear your laugh in the old screen door Then remember you don't live here anymore [Қайырма] If i could send one thing across the miles I'd send the quiet after your smile A folded note in a coat you wore Saying i miss who we were before And though the seasons change their names Some tender things refuse to fade [Куплет 2] Your green scarf hangs behind the chair Still carrying traces of winter air I take the long road past the mill Where the river bends and the world stands still [Алдынғы қайырма] I have learned to loosen my hold On every story we used to tell But some pages turn slowly by themselves And some goodbyes keep ringing like a bell [Қайырма] If i could send one thing across the miles I'd send the quiet after your smile A folded note in a coat you wore Saying i miss who we were before And though the seasons change their names Some tender things refuse to fade [Көпір] Maybe love is not a door Maybe it's the dust beneath the floor The shape a hand left in the clay The little ways we carry yesterday [Final chorus] So i will send this song across the miles With a little ache and a hundred smiles No promise waiting, nothing to prove Just gratitude for the days with you And though the seasons change their names Some tender things refuse to fade [Аутро] The blue mug rests beside the sink Morning arrives before i think I open the gate, i let the sparrows in And carry your kindness with me again
