Don't Wait Up For Me
You left your number on the receipt In blue ink, under a stain I kept it folded in my coat Like a debt I couldn't name The hallway clock missed every hour Your key still fit the door I heard the pipes knock twice at night Then checked the lock once more You said, “Don't wait up for me” I watched the kettle go cold Now every room remembers What neither of us told We are standing at the dead end With our hands around the flame You keep calling it a clean break I keep saying it’s the same If you want me gone, say it plainly Don't leave a mark and call it fate We were almost something honest Now we're locked outside the gate Your glass is still beside the sink A thumbprint on the side I boxed the books you never read And let the box sit wide The landlord's note came yesterday The rent is overdue I wrote your name across the form Then crossed it out in two You said, “Don't wait up for me” I watched the kettle go cold Now every room remembers What neither of us told We are standing at the dead end With our hands around the flame You keep calling it a clean break I keep saying it’s the same If you want me gone, say it plainly Don't leave a mark and call it fate We were almost something honest Now we're locked outside the gate Take the spare key from the bowl Take the coat you left behind Take the version of the story Where you never changed your mind I won't ask you for a reason I won't ask you to explain Just don't come back in November When the pipes knock twice again We are standing at the dead end With our hands around the flame You keep calling it a clean break I keep saying it’s the same If you want me gone, say it plainly Don't leave a mark and call it fate We were almost something honest Now we're locked outside the gate The receipt is in the drawer Your number's wearing thin The door still knows your key But I won't let you in

Текст песни
[Куплет 1] You left your number on the receipt In blue ink, under a stain I kept it folded in my coat Like a debt I couldn't name The hallway clock missed every hour Your key still fit the door I heard the pipes knock twice at night Then checked the lock once more [Предприпев] You said, “Don't wait up for me” I watched the kettle go cold Now every room remembers What neither of us told [Припев] We are standing at the dead end With our hands around the flame You keep calling it a clean break I keep saying it’s the same If you want me gone, say it plainly Don't leave a mark and call it fate We were almost something honest Now we're locked outside the gate [Куплет 2] Your glass is still beside the sink A thumbprint on the side I boxed the books you never read And let the box sit wide The landlord's note came yesterday The rent is overdue I wrote your name across the form Then crossed it out in two [Предприпев] You said, “Don't wait up for me” I watched the kettle go cold Now every room remembers What neither of us told [Припев] We are standing at the dead end With our hands around the flame You keep calling it a clean break I keep saying it’s the same If you want me gone, say it plainly Don't leave a mark and call it fate We were almost something honest Now we're locked outside the gate [Бридж] Take the spare key from the bowl Take the coat you left behind Take the version of the story Where you never changed your mind I won't ask you for a reason I won't ask you to explain Just don't come back in November When the pipes knock twice again [Финальный припев] We are standing at the dead end With our hands around the flame You keep calling it a clean break I keep saying it’s the same If you want me gone, say it plainly Don't leave a mark and call it fate We were almost something honest Now we're locked outside the gate [Аутро] The receipt is in the drawer Your number's wearing thin The door still knows your key But I won't let you in
