歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] Dust motes dance in golden beams Waking from a thousand dreams Between the stacks of scuffed-up leather Holding back the autumn weather I find a spine of forest green The softest verse I’ve ever seen [Chorus] Oh, stranger from a decade past Your ink was never meant to last But here I trace your pencil line Where your world starts to bloom in mine A maple leaf, a coffee stain Soft as late October rain [Post-Chorus] Just a whisper on the page Turning gold with every age Just a whisper on the page Turning gold with every age [Verse] Page forty-two is folded down A tiny map of London town? No, just a sketch of winter trees Swaying in a ghostly breeze A crimson leaf is pressed inside With nowhere left for it to hide [Pre-Chorus] You loved the way the heron flies Underneath these paper skies You wrote "the woods are lovely, deep" While all the city went to sleep [Chorus] Oh, stranger from a decade past Your ink was never meant to last But here I trace your pencil line Where your world starts to bloom in mine A maple leaf, a coffee stain Soft as late October rain [Bridge] The spinet hums a quiet tune Beneath the ghost of afternoon Did you sit here in this chair? With silver ribbons in your hair? I feel the warmth you left behind A secret only I could find [Instrumental] [Verse] The oboe sighs a low refrain Against the window, mist and grain You circled words like "moss" and "stone" To show you weren't quite alone I wonder if you ever knew I’d find this path because of you [Chorus] Oh, stranger from a decade past Your ink was never meant to last But here I trace your pencil line Where your world starts to bloom in mine A maple leaf, a coffee stain Soft as late October rain [Post-Chorus] Just a whisper on the page Turning gold with every age Just a whisper on the page Turning gold with every age [Outro]
