歌詞

One glass is still beside the window

A little left along the rim

The traffic underneath has thinned out

Since you walked out into it

I haven't moved the chair you left

Or cleared the table yet

The room keeps losing pieces of the night

One minute at a time

I thought I'd hear it in the room

In something breaking, something said

Instead it keeps a steady beat

Just under my collarbone

Now there's a bare horizon

Past the window where you stood

The last cars thin to nothing

Your glass still on the wood

A pale wash climbs the buildings

While shutters start to rise

I keep the cold you left here

As morning fills the street

I leave the glass there unfinished

Pull my jacket from the chair

The hallway smells like morning coffee

From somebody downstairs

A delivery truck is backing in

A shop light flickers on

I catch myself still listening

For footsteps that won't come

The door closes softly behind me

I hear the lock fall into place

Downstairs, someone drags a crate

Across the pavement by the gate

Now there's a bare horizon

Past the window where you stood

The last cars thin to nothing

Your glass still on the wood

A pale wash climbs the buildings

While shutters start to rise

I keep the cold you left here

As morning fills the street

At the corner I stop walking

While the signal counts me down

Cold air catches at my collar

Cars begin to fill the road

My hand stays deep inside my pocket

Till the numbers disappear

Then the walking figure flashes

And I cross with everyone

There's a bare horizon

Past the roofs across the street

Your unfinished glass behind me

The cold still underneath

The first buses take the corner

Storefronts open one by one

I wait until the signal changes

Then cross before it's gone
