Porch Light Fades Slow（バージョン2）

Intro

Soft white on the door...

Verse

You were running water in a mug that rattled full

Your coat was hung just so against the wall

I said I'd turn the key but I forgot to check if we could

Still leave it lit all through the night

The snowflakes settling slow like we'd been here long

Not counting down, not watching the clock

Just turning your back on winter's glow

And letting the porch light stay on

Pre-Chorus

Who stays behind when the engine starts to hum

Is it you or is it me

Maybe both of us are right

Maybe that's where we used to be

What if we didn't have a home

Or what if every home we've ever known

Could still stay lit for one more night

One more mile, one last good light

Chorus

Porch light fades slow over your shoulder

Every little spark we can hold on

Porch light fades soft and never fully gone

Because it's not about the dawn

Verse

I was watching steam rise off a cup

Your scarf was wrapped around your throat like a tie

You said the road ahead would be long

But you'd follow the smoke up high

I turned out every last one I could find

Just to keep the shadow at our back

The snow keeps falling slow, just inches from the line

Between the dark we came in on and the dark that's waiting still

Pre-Chorus

Who stays behind when the engine starts to hum

Is it you or is it me

Maybe both of us are right

Maybe that's where we used to be

What if we didn't have a home

Or what if every home we've ever known

Could still stay lit for one more night

One more mile, one last good light

Chorus

Porch light fades slow over your shoulder

Every little spark we can hold on

Porch light fades soft and never fully gone

Because it's not about the dawn

Bridge

You take my hand across the seat

Not to look back at where we started from

But because the road just got a little clearer

Because you said I didn't have to leave yet

The headlights hit the trees right in the dark

But they shine brighter than they did at start

And maybe that's all home ever was

Somebody keeping the light on for us

Chorus

Porch light fades slow over your shoulder

Every little spark we can hold on

Porch light fades soft and never fully gone

Because it's not about the dawn

Outro

Soft white on the door...
