Текст песни
[Куплет 1] You left your red scarf on the kitchen chair A little crescent of winter still resting there The kettle clicked, the afternoon went blue I kept one cup beside me, waiting for you [Предприпев] Through the orchard gate Past the leaning stone Some roads remember Where we used to go [Припев] Come back softly, come back slow Bring the quiet only you know I will leave the garden door unlatched tonight For the part of you that still returns in the light [Куплет 2] A paper boat is caught beneath the bridge With your old handwriting folded at the ridge The river carries every word downstream But your name stays warm inside the seam [Предприпев] When the first frost falls On the rosemary I hear your footsteps Where they used to be [Припев] Come back softly, come back slow Bring the quiet only you know I will leave the garden door unlatched tonight For the part of you that still returns in the light [Бридж] If you find the path by the elder tree Take the silver button home to me No grand promise, no borrowed flame Just sit beside me and say my name [Припев] Come back softly, come back slow Bring the quiet only you know I will leave the garden door unlatched tonight For the part of you that still returns in the light [Аутро] The scarf is folded, the kettle cool Morning gathers on the windowsill If you are listening beyond the rain I will be here when you come again
