Lyric

Your coat on my chair

Your breath in the room

We talk like we're near

Still miles in the loom

Your hand on my sleeve

Then gone in a second

I catch what you mean

But it leaves me unreckoned

There's a line in the floor

I keep stepping around

You lean in to say more

And the silence gets loud

So close, so far

We don't touch the scar

You're right here

But behind that bar

So close, so far

I can read your heart

Still I reach

And it slips apart

We share the same glass

We share the same night

You smile at the edge

I hold back the light

Your name in my mouth

Feels smaller than truth

Like a key in my palm

That won't turn for you

There's a line in the floor

I keep stepping around

You lean in to say more

And the silence gets loud

So close, so far

We don't touch the scar

You're right here

But behind that bar

So close, so far

I can read your heart

Still I reach

And it slips apart

If I spoke it plain

Would it break the glass

Would your eyes stay kind

Would the moment pass

I can stand right there

And still miss your hand

Some things stay alive

Only in the in-between

So close, so far

We don't touch the scar

You're right here

But behind that bar

So close, so far

I can read your heart

Still I reach

And it slips apart
