[Intro] [Verse] Gravel crunching on the drive Feeling lucky to be alive That old porch is peeling white In the golden morning light I see your shadow in the hall Leaning back against the wall [Pre-Chorus] The screen door sings a rusty tune Underneath a heavy moon Coffee in a chipped blue mug Resting on a braided rug [Chorus] Oh I let the thread go thin Where does the forgetting begin? Your flannel's faded to a gray Like the words I couldn't say G minor heart in a hollow chest Putting all the ghosts to rest [Verse] We were kings of summer sand Holding maps in every hand Now the ink has run to black There is no clear way back Just the smell of lake and pine In a world that isn't mine [Hook] Hold the line One more time Was it yours? Was it mine? [Chorus] Oh I let the thread go thin Where does the forgetting begin? Your flannel's faded to a gray Like the words I couldn't say G minor heart in a hollow chest Putting all the ghosts to rest [Bridge] The cello moans a low refrain Walking through the softest rain I reached out but the air was cold Stories that were never told Time is just a thief in boots Pulling up our tangled roots [Verse] I found that photo in a drawer The one we took by the shore You looked so sure of everything While I was losing every string I wonder if you kept the key Or if you still remember me The kettle's whistling on the stove In our quiet dusty grove [Chorus] Oh I let the thread go thin Where does the forgetting begin? Your flannel's faded to a gray Like the words I couldn't say G minor heart in a hollow chest Putting all the ghosts to rest [Outro]
