lyrics
Your cup still stains the sink Blue ring on the white enamel I found your watch by the olive tin And left it by the door panel The window keeps the harbor breath On my wrist, the rain left marks I folded your shirt in the bottom drawer And shut it with the dark The room knows every step The chair still turns your way I took your name off the hook And let the nail stay gray Not yours now Not yours now Not yours now Not yours now The song has changed its skin At Monastiraki, I passed your scarf In a shop with brass on glass I touched the hem of a black wool coat Then watched the hourglass The spoon in the dish was cold The keys sat under the bowl I kissed the mark on the table edge And let the salt take hold Not yours now Not yours now Not yours now Not yours now The song has changed its skin I cut the orange on the plate Thin moon of peel and thread You used to sing from the next room Now I sing what’s left Not yours now Not yours now Not yours now Not yours now The song has changed its skin
