歌詞

I found a spark in a storm drain night

Your name on a receipt in my coat

We laughed like we were safe for a while

Then morning came and asked for my vote

And the room kept turning

Like a coin in my palm

Your smile stayed burning

But the fire was calm

Stay near, stay near

My aching sky

Hold this shape

Before it dies

Stay near, stay near

Let it bend, not break

I can love

And still feel ache

Now every window has your aftertaste

Rain taps soft on the tank by the bed

I wear your absence like a second watch

It keeps the hour where we never fled

And the room kept turning

Like a coin in my palm

Your smile stayed burning

But the fire was calm

If you leave, leave slow

Let the hinges sing

I will keep

The small gold thing

If you leave, leave slow

Do it kindly, do

Some goodbyes

Still feel like you

We were two loose matches

Waiting for the same wind

I still taste the almost

Even now, even then

So stay near, stay near

Just for one more breath

Let me hold

What’s left of yes

Stay near, stay near

While the dark falls down

I can lose

And love the sound
