Текст песни
[Куплет 1] You left your blue cup by the window With a paper moon drawn on the side I kept it there through sunday weather Like a small excuse to let you stay in my mind The ferry horn rolled past the harbor Your message waited, three words and a period I typed a hundred different answers Then watched the afternoon turn gold on the floor [Предприпев] If i say your name, will the room get smaller? If i take the train, will i find you there? I’ve been carrying all this almost Like a folded note i never dared to share [Припев] Come a little closer, not forever Just enough to feel the air change sides We can leave the door open together Let the quiet tell us why Come a little closer, stay a minute There’s a kind of truth we don’t have to hide If the morning finds us different We were honest for one night [Куплет 2] You wore green beneath the station awning Rain made mirrors of the avenue We laughed about the missed connection As if the timing had been waiting on us too I told you about my brother’s record The one that skips before the final refrain You said some things are worth repeating When the ending never says what it should say [Предприпев] If i say your name, will the room get smaller? If i take your hand, will the years unwind? I’ve been saving all this almost For a moment brave enough to call it mine [Припев] Come a little closer, not forever Just enough to feel the air change sides We can leave the door open together Let the quiet tell us why Come a little closer, stay a minute There’s a kind of truth we don’t have to hide If the morning finds us different We were honest for one night [Бридж] No promises folded into silver No perfect ending waiting in the hall Just your shoulder next to mine And the courage not to name it all [Final chorus] Come a little closer, not forever Just enough to feel the air change sides We can leave the door open together Let the quiet tell us why Come a little closer, stay a minute Let the summer settle in our eyes If the morning finds us different We were honest for one night [Аутро] Your blue cup by the window Still catching pieces of the sky
