Текст песни
[Verse 1] You left your blue coat on the kitchen chair A paper receipt still folded in the pocket there I read the date, then set it down Like one small fact could keep you around [Pre-Chorus] The kettle clicks, the room goes still I keep expecting footsteps on the hill [Chorus] If you come back, come back slowly There’s a place beside the window only For the version of us that knew How to lose a day and make it new If you come back, leave the door wide I’ll be somewhere on the quiet side Trying not to turn away When your name returns to the room again [Verse 2] Your old blue mug has a crack near the handle I use it on Sundays when the weather turns gentle The neighbor’s dog knows my routine Two short walks past the pharmacy [Pre-Chorus] I hear your laugh in the plumbing pipes Then blame the house for getting it right [Chorus] If you come back, come back slowly There’s a place beside the window only For the version of us that knew How to lose a day and make it new If you come back, leave the door wide I’ll be somewhere on the quiet side Trying not to turn away When your name returns to the room again [Bridge] I don’t need a promise carved in stone Just tell me what you found out on your own And if the answer changed your mind I’ll let the silence take its time [Final Chorus] If you come back, come back slowly There’s a place beside the window only For the version of us that knew How to lose a day and make it new If you come back, leave the door wide I’ll be somewhere on the quiet side Learning how to let you stay When your name returns to the room again [Outro] The kettle clicks, the room goes still But this time I don’t mistake it for you
