lyrics
I folded your note by the sink Into the blue wool drawer Now the ink has gone pale in the light By the cracked cedar floor I found it beside wool socks And a receipt from Fred Meyer My thumb on the crease of your name Like a bruise I still admire At 2:14, I almost rang Then I watched the screen go black The kettle cooled on the stove And I slid the whole thing back Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Rain on the window in Pearl Left rings on the glass by dawn I meant to mail it downtown But the stamp kept staying on The corner bent from my keys And the envelope smells like pine I keep it under a stack Of maps and an old train line Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer I read it once on the floor With my knees in the rug You asked for one clean goodbye I gave you a note and a shrug If I sent it, it might break What little is left of us So it stays with the dust and the socks And the lamp with the busted bulb Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer Still in the drawer
