歌词
[Intro] [Verse] The dryer hums a steady low The fluorescent lights begin to glow Two a.m. and the streets are still I’m fighting off the morning chill One chair left where you used to sit I’m getting used to all of it [Pre-Chorus] The suds are spinning in the glass Watching all the shadows pass I pour the lavender from the box Searching for my missing socks [Chorus] Found a ticket in a sleeve The kind of thing you’d never leave Botanical gardens, half a price The greenest parts of paradise We never went, we never saw The beauty in the winter thaw Now it’s just a paper scrap Caught inside a memory trap [Post-Chorus] Just a paper scrap In a memory trap [Verse] The dobro moans a dusty blue The room feels big without you too Your side of the closet’s open wide Nowhere left for the ghosts to hide I hear a cricket through the door A sound I haven't heard before [Chorus] Found a ticket in a sleeve The kind of thing you’d never leave Botanical gardens, half a price The greenest parts of paradise We never went, we never saw The beauty in the winter thaw Now it’s just a paper scrap Caught inside a memory trap [Bridge] The upright bass begins to sway Like the things we didn't say I felt a relief when you packed the car But the garden feels so very far I keep the stub, I fold it neat While the heater hums beneath my feet [Breakdown] The harmonica breathes a heavy sigh Underneath the charcoal sky Lavender scent and silver coins Where the past and present joins [Verse] The coin slot clicks a heavy sound My heavy heart is finally found I watch the water turn to gray Rinsing all the hurt away But the stub stays dry inside my palm A little piece of quiet calm [Chorus] Found a ticket in a sleeve The kind of thing you’d never leave Botanical gardens, half a price The greenest parts of paradise We never went, we never saw The beauty in the winter thaw Now it’s just a paper scrap Caught inside a memory trap [Outro]
