Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Climbing up the creaky stairs Dust is hanging in the air Cardboard box beneath a chair Found a name I haven't seen Tucked inside a magazine Faded ink and shades of green [Pre-Chorus] Paper thin and turning gold Stories that were never told I can feel the winter chill Time is standing very still [Chorus] Oh, the words we never spoke Rising up like chimney smoke Heavy as a mountain oak I forgive the ghost in you For the things you didn't do And the lies we both knew were true [Post-Chorus] Let it go Soft and slow Let it go Now I know [Break] [Verse] Shaky lines and broken script Coffee stains where paper ripped "I am sorry" nearly slipped He was never good with grace Living in a lonely place I can almost see his face [Pre-Chorus] Handwriting is just like mine Tracing every jagged line Searching for a hidden sign Running out of borrowed time [Chorus] Oh, the words we never spoke Rising up like chimney smoke Heavy as a mountain oak I forgive the ghost in you For the things you didn't do And the lies we both knew were true [Bridge] Some things stay broken Some doors never open But I’m tired of the fight In the middle of the night Let the anger drift away There is nothing left to say [Verse] Walking down to the porch light Moon is hanging low and white Everything feels almost right I’ll fold the pages back again Put away the heavy pen This is where the shadows end I'll leave the box upon the floor I don't need it anymore [Chorus] Oh, the words we never spoke Rising up like chimney smoke Heavy as a mountain oak I forgive the ghost in you For the things you didn't do And the lies we both knew were true [Post-Chorus] Let it go Soft and slow Let it go Now I know [Outro]
