Текст песни
[Куплет 1] You left your blue mug by the window Beside the thyme we tried to grow A paper list with three small errands And your handwriting sloping low [Предприпев] I fold the page and keep it near me Like a map of where we’ve been [Припев] If you come back by the old footbridge I’ll be waiting where the alder bends With the kettle warm and the gate unlatched And a little room for mending things again [Куплет 2] The porch boards creak beneath the morning Rain has darkened every grain I find your scarf behind the doorway Still carrying the scent of cedar rain [Предприпев] Some days hurt in quiet colors Some days let the sunlight in [Припев] If you come back by the old footbridge I’ll be waiting where the alder bends With the kettle warm and the gate unlatched And a little room for mending things again [Бридж] No promise needs a perfect sentence No road stays straight from end to end Take the turn beside the wildflowers I’ll know your step before you call my name [Final chorus] If you come back by the old footbridge I’ll be waiting where the alder bends With the kettle warm and the gate unlatched And a little room for mending things again A little room for mending things again [Аутро] The blue mug waits beside the window And the thyme has started growing in
