Verse
Kettle clicks at half past nine
Window fog in a crooked line
Yesterday's cup still on the sill
Same old chair, same windowsill
Radiator hums a slow refrain
Trace your name on the foggy pane
Photograph curled at the edge of the desk
Half a smile I never let rest
Pre-Chorus
Do you still take it black
Do you still turn back
When the hallway light goes low
Chorus
Steam rises over nowhere
Soft and slow, nowhere
Just the warmth we used to know
Steam rises over nowhere
Verse
Vinyl skips on the second line
Dust collects where the sun don't shine
Your old sweater on the hook by the door
Wearing thin like it did before
Streetlight leaks through the paper shade
Coffee ring where the letter stayed
Never sent it, never signed
Left it folded, left it behind
Pre-Chorus
Do you still take it black
Do you still turn back
When the hallway light goes low
Chorus
Steam rises over nowhere
Soft and slow, nowhere
Just the warmth we used to know
Steam rises over nowhere
Bridge
Maybe nowhere's just a room
Where the clock forgets to move
Maybe warmth don't need a name
Just a cup and quiet rain
Chorus
Steam rises over nowhere
Soft and slow, nowhere
Just the warmth we used to know
Steam rises over nowhere
Outro
Kettle's cold now, but I stay
Watching nowhere drift away
