Verse 1: Male

You left your blue mug by the sink

A thin brown ring beneath the rim

I wash it twice, then set it back

As if the room might let you in

Verse 2: Female

Your wool coat hangs behind the door

Still carrying the smell of rain

I touch the pocket, find a train stub

And fold it into my palm again

Pre-Chorus: Male & Female

We kept the little things alive

Long after we let go

A photograph inside a book

A name I almost know

Chorus: Male & Female

If you come by, don't knock too hard
