Notes of Time Gone By

[Куплет 1] Your cup still has my name In a pale brown ring By the window frame I let the old songs sing Your scarf on the chair Still folds like you I touch the frayed edge there Like it knows me too [Алдынғы қайырма] And i Still walk that line Between goodbye And “stay a while” [Қайырма] Tea stain morning Hold me there Tea stain morning In the air I still reach For your hand Tea stain morning Understand [Куплет 2] The kettle hums low On the quiet stove I watch the steam go Then it fades slow Your laugh in the room Soft as rain I lean into the bloom Of the old refrain [Алдынғы қайырма] And i Still hear your trace In empty space In every place [Қайырма] Tea stain morning Hold me there Tea stain morning In the air I still reach For your hand Tea stain morning Understand [Көпір] If you come back round Leave the door unlatched Let the time fall down Let the small things match I don’t need forever Just one more light Just your voice On a half-lit night [Final chorus] Tea stain morning Hold me there Tea stain morning In the air I still reach For your hand Tea stain morning Understand Tea stain morning Hold me near Tea stain morning Stay right here
