Slow Fire, Late Train (버전 2)

Verse

Steam off the window where we sat close

Six a.m., nobody moved to go

Your hand on my knee like it's holding time

The engine pulled out, I held the line

Four stops before you knew my name

I counted each station like a heartbeat in flames

Every station was a chance to disappear

To ride the slow train till nothing else was here

Pre-Chorus

So how do we pull the trigger on goodbye

When the fire's still burning and I don't wanna say goodbye

Chorus

Hold the door, hold the light

Don't let it leave you in the night

We can ride this slow fire down

Till the station comes around

Slow fire, late train

Melt the ice on my windowpane

Every stop's a little piece of me with you

I don't wanna watch us go through

Verse

Your jacket was draped on the empty seat beside me

Two cups left over from that coffee shop by the trackside

Three hours and it turned into three days

We rewrote our whole goodbye in the rain and gray

You said you'd be back by Friday night

I said keep your word, I'll hold the light

Pre-Chorus

So how do we pull the trigger on goodbye

When the fire's still burning and I don't wanna say goodbye

Chorus

Hold the door, hold the light

Don't let it leave you in the night

We can ride this slow fire down

Till the station comes around

Slow fire, late train

Melt the ice on my windowpane

Every stop's a little piece of me with you

I don't wanna watch us go through

Bridge

Maybe I'm a little scared it won't come back

But maybe that's okay — we can learn to look back at the track

You're watching from the platform now

Your palm is up, I see it slow and low

This could break or this could hold us tight

Either way I need you here tonight

Chorus

Hold the door, hold the light

Don't let it leave you in the night

We can ride this slow fire down

Till the station comes around

Slow fire, late train

Melt the ice on my windowpane

Every stop's a little piece of me with you

I don't wanna watch us go through
