Every Room I Leave Behind (वर्ज़न 2)

Intro

(Breathe)

Verse

Stairs creak like a sigh from the wooden frame

Your perfume on my collar, your name in the flame

You're folding towels by the kitchen window, watching me go

I'm counting the steps until I don't know if you'll still be here when I come home

(Wait)

Pre-Chorus

Is this where it ends? Is this where we stop moving?

Every room I leave behind feels like a heartbeat dying

Can we turn back time and make the door swing open instead?

Or is this just another goodbye we're not done saying yet

Chorus

Every room I leave behind

Every room I leave behind

(Every step I take, I'm running from your smile)

Verse

You left a note on the counter with my name in it

I still find it folded up like a secret I shouldn't keep

Your favorite sweater hanging by the laundry line

I never took it home, just kept wearing what was mine

(Hold)

Pre-Chorus

Is this where it ends? Is this where we stop moving?

Every room I leave behind feels like a heartbeat dying

Can we turn back time and make the door swing open instead?

Or is this just another goodbye we're not done saying yet

Chorus

Every room I leave behind

Every room I leave behind

(Every step I take, I'm running from your smile)

Bridge

Maybe I shouldn't be counting doors, maybe I should count the time it takes for you to miss me when I'm gone.

But then again, every single one of them felt like a chance for us to start over. And who's keeping track anyway? Just me and my heart walking out into that gray.

(Let go)

Let go

Chorus

Every room I leave behind

Every room I leave behind

(Every step I take, I'm running from your smile)
