lyrics

It's been years since my last visit
But the little things bring me back
The scent of her hand soap
And the buttons from a guitar strap
Frozen cookies in the oven
Fresh snow on the balcony
Sunshine on the carpet
A box of wine and DVDs

I never saw it coming
I was caught by surprise
By cicada's calming chorus
The smell of green grass at night
Intercepted handshakes
Breakfast in the afternoon
Netflix in her bedroom
A kiss that's way overdue

That was the first time that color filled the room
The realization blinding
You were always mine to lose
I'll create the spaces
I'll cover you with white
Give me the strength to be spotless
I'm letting go
Letting go
Goodbye

Maps above the doorway
Usher in a whole new life
I saw it out for miles
But I was caught by surprise

I'm the thawing out of winter
The coming of the spring
A spectre in the window
Waiting for nothing
I'll create the spaces
I'll cover you with white
Give me the strength to be spotless
I'm letting go
Letting go
Goodbye
