Lyric

You left your cup on the sill

By the window over the sink

I still wash it by hand

Like your name on my tongue

Your jacket still knows my chair

The blue one with the torn cuff

I catch myself making two plates

Then laugh and leave one cold

I see you in small things

In the salt on the rim

In the note on the fridge

In the quiet you lived in

And I want you near

Then I want you gone

Both feelings arrive

At the same old dawn

Come back, come back

Stay for a while

Hold me, hold me

Like you mean it now

We were a match

Then the smoke took flight

Come back, come back

I still reach at night

Your train card's still in my drawer

Next to a hair tie and spare keys

I should throw out the whole box

But I keep every small thing

At the corner store today

They played that song from May

I stood in the cold by the milk

And forgot what I came to say

I see you in small things

In the salt on the rim

In the note on the fridge

In the quiet you lived in

And I want you near

Then I want you gone

Both feelings arrive

At the same old dawn

Come back, come back

Stay for a while

Hold me, hold me

Like you mean it now

We were a match

Then the smoke took flight

Come back, come back

I still reach at night

I met your laugh in a crowd

On the edge of a loud room

It hit like rain on warm stone

Then it left me too soon

Now I know what you meant

When you said love can bruise

Not a wound that stays open

Just a mark I can use

I see you in small things

In the salt on the rim

In the note on the fridge

In the quiet you lived in

And I want you near

Then I want you gone

Both feelings arrive

At the same old dawn

Come back, come back

Stay for a while

Hold me, hold me

Like you mean it now

We were a match

Then the smoke took flight

Come back, come back

I still reach at night

If I see you again

I won't ask for the moon

Just your hand on my sleeve

And a minute too soon

We can talk about rain

We can leave out the rest

I can love you in pieces

And still call that blessed

Mm-mm

Mm-mm

Mm-mm

Come back, come back

Stay for a while

Hold me, hold me

Like you mean it now

We were a match

Then the smoke took flight

Come back, come back

I still reach at night

Come back, come back

Don't make me choose

I keep your shape

In the things I use

We were a match

Then the smoke took flight

Come back, come back

I still reach at night
