Soft Echoes on Glass

[Verse 1]

Suitcase in the corner

Mismatched coffee on the floor

Names of streets I can’t remember

On the crumpled flyer by the door

Neon on the kettle

Steam fogs up this little room

Raindrops racing on the window

I bet you’re waking up soon

[Chorus]

I watch the rain draw lines on the glass

Slow little rivers

Pulling me back

To late-night dishes and your old laugh

I watch the rain

I watch the rain

And I go back

[Verse 2]

Plants in borrowed terracotta

Haven’t learned the light here yet

Neighbors hum through paper walls

I turn the volume down and just forget

Photo on the fridge half crooked

You in summer

Eyes half closed

I trace the frame with tired fingers

Pretend I’m not this far from home

[Chorus]

I watch the rain draw lines on the glass

Slow little rivers

Pulling me back

To kitchen dancing and your soft laugh

I watch the rain

I watch the rain

And I go back

[Bridge]

Same sky

Different ceiling (oh)

You there

Me here breathing slow

If you were on the other line

What would I even say?

[Chorus]

I watch the rain draw lines on the glass

Slow little rivers

Pulling me back

To quiet mornings and your old laugh

I watch the rain

I watch the rain

And I go back
