lyrics
There’s a yellowed page in the desk by the door Folded in half with my Ohio State score Stamp still waiting in the red dish tray Six words crossed out when you moved away I keep the top drawer shut at night Keys, old receipts, and a postal light Your name sits quiet under the lamp Like a thumbprint pressed in the stamp Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer I never sent it out June on the calendar, fourth circled in blue Bus on the corner, wet tennis shoes I wrote your street and the grocery store Then I froze with the pen in the middle of more Now the paper bends when the furnace sighs Coffee rings fade in the corner lines I can hear your porch screen close When the whole house turns and nobody knows Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer I never sent it out Maybe the words were too plain, too true Maybe I wanted one more try with you So it sleeps by the socks and the spare change pile Near the battery box and the old pay stub file Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer I never sent it out
