Текст песни
[Verse 1] Your photograph rests by the kettle The corner is worn from my hands I pour two cups out of old habit Then watch one grow cold where it stands [Pre-Chorus] The train took your coat from the hallway Your footsteps went quiet by dawn I keep all the words I could not say Folded inside what is gone [Chorus] If distance has a language, I know it by heart It speaks in the silence that keeps us apart I carry your name like a match in the rain Small enough to shelter, strong enough to remain [Verse 2] Your blue scarf still hangs on the doorway It smells faintly of cedar and snow I tell the cracked mirror good morning As if you might answer below [Pre-Chorus] The letters I started stay waiting Their pages are soft at the crease I leave one sentence unfinished A place where your voice could bring peace [Chorus] If distance has a language, I know it by heart It speaks in the silence that keeps us apart I carry your name like a match in the rain Small enough to shelter, strong enough to remain [Bridge] Maybe the road bends toward morning Maybe the tide turns unseen I cannot promise forgetting But I can keep room for what’s been [Chorus] If distance has a language, I know it by heart It speaks in the silence that keeps us apart I carry your name like a match in the rain Small enough to shelter, strong enough to remain [Outro] One cup by the kettle One light in the hall I hold to the quiet Until it is not all
