歌詞

Some rooms stay inside you

Long after you close the door

I left the key where the morning could find it

On the table by the window frame

The cup was cold, but the light was still there

Like it did not know the ending came

I told myself I was walking away

With both my hands empty and free

But every street I tried to disappear through

Kept turning back into you and me

It was not the walls

It was not the rain

It was all the quiet

That kept your name

There is a room I didn’t leave

A little place inside of me

Where your coat still hangs in the winter light

Where we are almost still all right

There is a room I didn’t leave

Not because I want to stay

But some goodbyes close the door outside

And keep the inside the same

I changed the sheets and moved the chair

Threw out the notes I used to keep

But memory does not ask for space

It sits beside me when I sleep

Maybe love is not always a fire

Maybe some love becomes a room

A place you pass through every night

When the city fades too soon

It was not the past

It was not regret

It was all the silence

I could not forget

There is a room I didn’t leave

A little place inside of me

Where your voice still moves through the hallway light

Where we are almost still all right

There is a room I didn’t leave

Not because I want you back

But some goodbyes take the body away

And leave the heart unpacked

Some rooms stay inside you

Long after you close the door

I am not waiting there

I just remember what it was for
