歌詞

When the lights go quiet

I still think of you

The city closes windows one by one

A little rain is drying on the street

I walk beneath the tired neon signs

With all the words I never learned to keep

You were not a storm that broke my life

You were a room I didn’t want to leave

And somewhere in the silence after us

Your name still knows the way back into me

We never made a sound

When everything fell through

Some goodbyes don’t leave the room

They stay there next to you

When the lights go quiet

And the night comes down slow

I hear the part of you

I couldn’t let go

Not loud enough to call it pain

Not soft enough to disappear

Just a little light I carry

When there’s no one here

I pass the place where we were almost fine

The glass reflects a face I barely know

I tell myself that time is moving on

But some roads keep the shape of where we go

Maybe I was trying to be kind

Maybe I was only scared to speak

I kept the door half-open in my mind

For someone who was never coming back to me

We never had an ending

That knew how to be clear

Some hearts don’t break in pieces

They simply stay right here

When the lights go quiet

And the night comes down slow

I hear the part of you

I couldn’t let go

Not loud enough to call it pain

Not soft enough to disappear

Just a little light I carry

When there’s no one here

When the lights go quiet

I still think of you

Not because I’m waiting

But because it once was true
