Текст песни
[Verse 1] Your blue scarf hangs beside the door Though you have crossed the sea I fold the corners like before And keep your place with me The kettle cools, the letters wait Beneath the kitchen glass I learn the shape of missing you By watching hours pass [Pre-Chorus] If distance has a language It speaks in things we save A photograph, a borrowed coat A name I cannot say [Chorus] Come back to the room we left Come back when the road is kind I will leave one candle burning And the old chair by my side If all we have is memory Then memory will be enough I will hold the quiet for you Until the world brings you home [Verse 2] Your mother calls on Sundays She asks if I still sing I tell her that the garden grew And spring forgot the spring A train moves past at half-past ten The windows briefly shine I wonder if you hear it too On your far side of time [Pre-Chorus] Some promises grow smaller But never disappear They rest beneath the ordinary And wait for us to hear [Chorus] Come back to the room we left Come back when the road is kind I will leave one candle burning And the old chair by my side If all we have is memory Then memory will be enough I will hold the quiet for you Until the world brings you home [Bridge] When your hands find mine again No grand words will be said Just the sound of rain on window glass And your suitcase by the bed [Final Chorus] Come back to the room we left Come back when the road is kind I will leave one candle burning And the old chair by my side If all we have is memory Then memory will be enough I will hold the quiet for you Until the world brings you home [Outro] Until the world brings you home I’ll keep the door unlatched
