歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The ladder is missing a rung The old oak is no longer young I pull myself up to the floor I'm opening a ghost of a door The roof has a leak in the corner I'm a guest, not a lonely mourner [Chorus] Scrawled in a faded blue ink More than a man ought to think Names that I used to know well Stories only these boards can tell Small marks in the grain of the wood I'm staying right where I stood [Verse] There’s a heart with a jagged old crack Taking my memory right back To a girl with a ribbon of red And all of the words never said We traded some baseball cards In all of these quiet backyards [Pre-Chorus] The dust is a blanket of gold Nothing here ever gets old It’s funny how little things stay When everything else blows away [Chorus] Scrawled in a faded blue ink More than a man ought to think Names that I used to know well Stories only these boards can tell Small marks in the grain of the wood I'm staying right where I stood [Bridge] The harmonium hums in the breeze Moving through all of the trees I feel like a boy once again Free from the world and the men The waltz of the leaves on the ground Is the only remaining sound [Verse] I didn't remember the day We decided to just walk away But looking at every small sign I’m glad that this history is mine The splinters don't sting like before I don't need to run anymore [Chorus] Scrawled in a faded blue ink More than a man ought to think Names that I used to know well Stories only these boards can tell Small marks in the grain of the wood I'm staying right where I stood [Post-Chorus] I'm staying right where I stood It's all for the better and good Small lines in a pencil lead Things that we finally said [Outro]
