Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Coffee gone cold on the windowsill Sun never rises It just turns pale You tap out chords on the table Like you're spelling out a farewell [Pre-Chorus] Your suitcase leans by the doorway My heartbeat stumbles on four You say it's only a short break But the silence is asking for more (hey) [Chorus] Frost on the ivory keys You left your song inside of me Every note is cracking But I still keep playing Frost on the ivory keys Wish I could warm you back to me If I play it louder Would you start staying? [Verse 2] We learned to dance in our wool socks Spinning on splinters and old floor scars You hummed that line out of nowhere Now it’s stuck in all of my parts [Pre-Chorus] I hear it float through the hallway In every creak of the boards You’re halfway gone on the runway I’m halfway lost in the chords [Chorus] Frost on the ivory keys You left your song inside of me Every note is cracking But I still keep playing Frost on the ivory keys Wish I could warm you back to me If I play it louder Would you start staying? [Bridge] [Band drops to low piano and voice] If you turn around at the terminal gate Will the rhythm of us rearrange all your plans? I will be here in the dark In this room Hands on the wrong notes Calling you back [Chorus] Frost on the ivory keys You left your song inside of me Every note is cracking But I still keep playing (still playing) Frost on the ivory keys Echoes where your laughter used to be If I play it louder Will you come home singing?
