The Library Refrain

[Intro]
[Verse]
Sunlight hits the leaded glass
Dusty shelves where hours pass
You are sorting through the stacks
Tracing all the paper cracks
[Verse]
I watch your hands move slow
Secrets that I’ll never know
Leaning on the heavy wood
I’d stay forever if I could
[Pre-Chorus]
The silence starts to ache
A heart that didn't break
Just a bend within the light
Before I fade from sight
[Chorus]
I leave the book upon the desk
Simple, quiet, and picturesque
The dog-eared page is set
With no room for regret
The front door chime will ring
A song I'll never sing
[Post-Chorus]
I'm letting go
Watch the river flow
Soft and low
[Verse]
A note is tucked inside
With nowhere left to hide
Just a poem about the rain
To ease this little pain
[Pre-Chorus]
The shadows start to lean
In shades I’ve never seen
The morning turns to gold
A story left untold
[Chorus]
I leave the book upon the desk
Simple, quiet, and picturesque
The dog-eared page is set
With no room for regret
The front door chime will ring
A song I'll never sing
[Bridge]
No bitter words to find
I leave the ghost behind
The viola starts to swell
As I wish you well
[Chorus]
I leave the book upon the desk
Simple, quiet, and picturesque
The dog-eared page is set
With no room for regret
The front door chime will ring
A song I'll never sing
[Outro]
