歌詞

I found your box again

At the back of the shelf

A gray ribbon sleeping

Around a little self

Folded notes and ticket stubs

A name I used to know

I held it in my palm

And let the memory show

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Tie me to the past

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Nothing ever lasts

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Still you hold me still

Around old memories

Against my will

The mirror kept your shadow

On the edge of my face

I traced the frayed satin

Like a wound in lace

The porch had seen our voices

The rain had named the sky

I heard your laugh in pieces

Then I let it pass me by

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Tie me to the past

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Nothing ever lasts

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Still you hold me still

Around old memories

Against my will

Now the room is quiet

But your touch remains

In that soft gray circle

In the ache that stains

If I untie this moment

Will I lose your flame?

Or keep you in the folding

Where I still call your name

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Tie me to the past

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Nothing ever lasts

Gray ribbon, gray ribbon

Still you hold me still

Around old memories

Against my will
