[Verse 1] You left your coffee by the window Cold ring on the wooden sill I kept the chair beside the doorway Like you might come back still [Verse 2] Your blue dress hangs behind the bedroom Dust gathers on the sleeve I hear the freight line past the orchard And count the things I can't retrieve [Chorus] If this old house could tell me something It would say what I already know Some hearts break quiet as a sunset Some learn too late to let love go [Verse 3] I drove the county road at sundown Past the church and Miller's store Every mile held one more memory Every turn asked what I was waiting for [Chorus] If this old house could tell me something It would say what I already know Some hearts break quiet as a sunset Some learn too late to let love go [Bridge] I was proud when you needed mercy I was silent when you needed truth Now the only thing this room remembers Is the man I was with you [Chorus] If this old house could tell me something It would say what I already know Some hearts break quiet as a sunset Some learn too late to let love go [Outro] So I took your blue dress from the doorway Folded it beneath the bed Left the coffee ring untouched there And finally turned instead
