Lyric

Your name on the pane

Breaks into rain

I saw your coat in the frame

Then the glass took your face

A smear of gold in the gray

A shape I could not place

My fingers drew little storms

On the window at the door

You turned to look once at me

Then you were there no more

Say it again

Soft on the air

I know that sound

I know you were there

Name behind glass

Don't fade away

Name behind glass

Stay for a day

I call you back

You answer slow

Name behind glass

Don't let me go

The tram bells slid down the block

And the room held its breath

Your laugh was a silver thread

I kept from the wreck

I watched the rain make rivers

Out of every line

And in that blurring mirror

You were mine and not mine

Say it again

Soft on the air

I know that sound

I know you were there

Name behind glass

Don't fade away

Name behind glass

Stay for a day

I call you back

You answer slow

Name behind glass

Don't let me go

If I lean close enough

Will the world confess

Will your outline return

From the water and breath

One small word

On a window's skin

And I swear I can feel

You beginning again

Name behind glass

Don't fade away

Name behind glass

Stay for a day

I call you back

You answer slow

Name behind glass

Don't let me go

Your name on the pane

Soft as rain
