Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] The porch swing is still The lake air is chill Windows are dusty The lock is quite rusty I step inside the heavy gloom Of this hollowed-out room [Pre-Chorus] The light is getting low Where did the years go? I hear the floorboards groan I am here all alone [Chorus] Pencil marks on the door Shadows dance on the floor Smell of mildew and pine Ghosts of your time and mine I am not sad anymore Just glad for what came before [Verse] Your name is carved in wood Right where we once stood The kitchen is bare But memories are there An old deck of cards Scattered like glass shards [Chorus] Pencil marks on the door Shadows dance on the floor Smell of mildew and pine Ghosts of your time and mine I am not sad anymore Just glad for what came before [Bridge] I never said the words I should I didn't think I ever would The silence is a heavy weight But maybe it is not too late To say thank you to the air And find some peace hidden there [Breakdown] Cello sings a low song Where we both belong Dusk turns into night Holding on to the light [Chorus] Pencil marks on the door Shadows dance on the floor Smell of mildew and pine Ghosts of your time and mine I am not sad anymore Just glad for what came before [Post-Chorus] Glad for what came before Walking out through the door Leaving it all behind With a quiet mind [Outro]
