[Куплет 1] I found your letter in the kitchen drawer The paper held the shape of your old hand A train went by beyond the apartment wall And took the words i never got to send [Алдынғы қайырма] I still leave room beside the window Though i know you won't come through Some habits outlive the leaving Some roads keep leading back to you [Қайырма] If distance is a country, i'm still there Carrying your name like a folded prayer When the winter lifts from the garden gate I'll tell the empty chair i learned to wait Ahh, ahh, ohh, ohh Ahh, ahh, ohh, ohh [Куплет 2] Your blue cup rests behind the sugar tin A small moon chipped along its porcelain I hear your laugh inside the washing machine Then silence settles softly once again [Алдынғы қайырма] I don't ask the night for answers I don't blame the turning year I just keep one match unbroken For the day you reappear [Қайырма] If distance is a country, i'm still there Carrying your name like a folded prayer When the winter lifts from the garden gate I'll tell the empty chair i learned to wait Ahh, ahh, ohh, ohh Ahh, ahh, ohh, ohh [Көпір] Maybe hope is not a promise Maybe hope is staying kind Keeping one warm room within me For the life we left behind [Брейкдаун] So take your time, wherever you are The kettle cools, the morning starts I won't pretend the hurt is gone But i can hold it and carry on [Final chorus] If distance is a country, i'm still there Carrying your name like a folded prayer When the winter lifts from the garden gate I'll tell the empty chair i learned to wait Ahh, ahh, ohh, ohh Ahh, ahh, ohh, ohh [Аутро] The garden gate is quiet now A little green beneath the frost I leave the window open For everything we haven't lost
