Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He found the box up high
Under fan blades and dust
A brass key, a cracked clock
And a note tied in rust
On top, an old belt buckle
A ticket, faded red
He held the past with both hands
Like it might wake the dead
[Pre-Chorus]
Grandpa climbed the steps slow
Fingers on the rail
He smiled like he knew each thing
Before the story spelled
[Chorus]
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
From the attic light
To the years gone by (tell me that one again)
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
Every mark in your hand
Has a home inside
[Verse 2]
He picked up a dented compass
Turned it to the sun
Said, “That was from a summer
When your dad was young”
A matchbook from a diner
A sleeve patch torn loose
A photo with the corners bent
Of men in muddy boots
He laughed at a blue glass marble
Rolled it in his palm
Said, “Your uncle lost that twice
Then found it in the barn”
[Pre-Chorus]
And the room got quiet
As a church bell tone
Every object on that table
Brought another road back home
[Chorus]
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
From the attic light
To the years gone by (tell me that one again)
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
Every mark in your hand
Has a home inside
[Bridge]
He pulled a songbook open
Pages soft as rain
Said, “We sang through hard winters
Just to feel okay”
The kid sat on the floorboards
Learning names by heart
Not every map is paper
Some are stored in scars (stored in scars)
[Final Chorus]
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
From the attic light
To the years gone by (tell me that one again)
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
Every little thing
Keeps a life inside (inside)
Tell me that one again
Tell me that one again
One more time, old man
Before the dark comes down
