Weather Report 27

Verse

Parking lot lights flicker on at six a.m.

Coffee cups rolling through the half-open gate

You're still holding my jacket over your shoulder

Like it's proof of something we can't explain

Six months and the whole floor is empty now

Just the two of us walking past the

Pre-Chorus

So what do you call this when the goodbyes are sweet

Is it a season or just a little heat

Tell me where you're headed, tell me where I'm staying

I'm not ready for either one to end

Let's not decide right here by the dumpster lights

Let's see if sunset comes back again

Chorus

So what do you call this when the goodbyes are sweet

Is it a season or just a little heat

Catch me before I turn back into winter

We'll figure out where to go next together

Verse

Your car window still says 4.42 AM, screen glow

I'm folding your scarf like a map I know too well

Box of my old name tags under the seat

You say keep them, but you're holding yours neat

Do you remember how we used to steal an extra hour

Chased the sunrise down to the river's shore

Now it's just us, walking slow past the closed sign

Neither one of us knows what time it is

Pre-Chorus

So what do you call this when the goodbyes are sweet

Is it a season or just a little heat

Tell me where you're headed, tell me where I'm staying

I'm not ready for either one to end

Let's not decide right here by the dumpster lights

Let's see if sunset comes back again

Chorus

So what do you call this when the goodbyes are sweet

Is it a season or just a little heat

Catch me before I turn back into winter

We'll figure out where to go next together

Bridge

Maybe ending's just the wind before the rain

Not the storm itself, not the name

Maybe we were never chasing what was here to stay

Just the road that looks like it ends at day

So if this is goodbye in disguise

I'm keeping my jacket anyway

Chorus

So what do you call this when the goodbyes are sweet

Is it a season or just a little heat

Catch me before I turn back into winter

We'll figure out where to go next together
