[Verse 1]
You left your scarf on the fence
By the riverbend
I held it up to the wind
Like it might come back again
Your boots made dents in the mud
By the alder trees
Now every path feels borrowed
Every branch still leans to me
[Pre-Chorus]
I watch the clouds move slow
Over the hollow hill
They keep on going home
While I stand still
[Chorus]
Moss on glass, moss on glass
Covering what we had
Moss on glass, moss on glass
Green over all the cracks
I try to clear it off
But it keeps growing back
Moss on glass, moss on glass
That’s how I love like that
[Verse 2]
The creek keeps its own old song
Under stones and roots
I learned how to say your name
By the shape of the shoots
A fox in the brush at dawn
Turned and watched me pass
Like it knew what it means
To lose a trail too fast
[Pre-Chorus]
I watch the clouds move slow
Over the hollow hill
They keep on going home
While I stand still
[Chorus]
Moss on glass, moss on glass
Covering what we had
Moss on glass, moss on glass
Green over all the cracks
I try to clear it off
But it keeps growing back
Moss on glass, moss on glass
That’s how I love like that
[Bridge]
If I call your name aloud
Will the pines lean in?
Will the rain unpin the past
And let you breathe again?
I found you in the thorns
I lost you in the frost
Now I press my palm to time
Like it might feel soft
[Chorus]
Moss on glass, moss on glass
Covering what we had
Moss on glass, moss on glass
Green over all the cracks
I try to clear it off
But it keeps growing back
Moss on glass, moss on glass
That’s how I love like that
