歌詞

Steam on the window

Two chipped mugs between our hands

Your sweater sleeves hiding your fingers

You laugh

And the room forgets the rain

Photographs curled on the table

Ink from a postcard

Almost gone

You trace every faded letter

Reading them softly like a song

You say

“We’re only passing through”

I say

“That’s what seasons do”

Still I feel the colors hold

Every small forever we once knew

Holding autumn gently as it falls

Catching every leaf before it goes

Letting all the chilly air in

Just to feel you closer in my coat

If this moment drifts away tonight

Let it leave a shadow on the wall

I will be the quiet in your eyes

Holding autumn gently as it falls

Street outside humming in traffic

Candles leave halos on your face

Your tired eyes search for an answer

I just pull you tighter

Give you space

You say

“Love is made of leaving”

I say

“Love is what remains”

Somewhere between loss and meaning

We are stitching names into the same quilt of days

Holding autumn gently as it falls

Catching every leaf before it goes

Letting all the chilly air in

Just to feel you closer in my coat

If this moment drifts away tonight

Let it leave a shadow on the wall

I will be the quiet in your eyes

Holding autumn gently as it falls

If the morning finds you restless (Oh)

Chasing every doubt across the floor

I will make the coffee slower

Talk a little softer than before

If the years turn heavy on your shoulders

Memories like branches bending low

Lean your weight against my silence

I will learn the language of your soul

Holding autumn gently as it falls

Catching every leaf before it goes

Letting all the chilly air in

Just to feel you closer in my coat

If this moment drifts away tonight

Let it leave a shadow on the wall

I will be the quiet in your eyes

Holding autumn gently as it falls

Steam on the window

Candles burning small and bright

Your hand resting over my heartbeat

Two shadows breathing into night
