The last train shudders in the cold
I catch your sleeve before you go
Old earphones tangled in my coat
Playing that song we used to know
You look away then look back quick
Like you forgot you missed me too
I take one step then one more step
And all I want is closer to you
The doors hiss shut but we don't move
Your hands are shaking mine do too
I used to talk myself to sleep
Tonight I just keep falling through
The platform's empty but it feels
Like every mile is pulling tight
You let your guard fall out your eyes
And I let go of being right
I finally let my heart go still
I finally let the noise get small
I hear you now and that's enough
I don't need walls around it all
I finally let my heart go still
So I can feel you here again
No more running from the truth
I only want to let you in
Your jacket smells like rain and smoke
And something soft I know by name
I laugh a little then you do
Like we remember how to stay
The old earphones crackle low
One bud in yours one bud in mine
We stand there breathing in the gap
Then slowly close the space in time
You say sorry I say too
Our words are clumsy warm and real
No perfect speech no pretty script
Just what we lost and what we feel
If I reach first don't pull away
If you stay I'll stay too
We don't have to solve it now
We just have to make it through
So come a little closer
Let the missing pieces calm
I don't need to win tonight
I just want my heart to turn off
I finally let my heart go still
I finally let the noise get small
I hear you now and that's enough
I don't need walls around it all
I finally let my heart go still
So I can feel you here again
No more running from the truth
I only want to let you in
I finally let my heart go still
With you standing next to me
The last train leaves but we don't care
We're finally where we're meant to be
Old earphones one soft song
Your hand finds mine and I don't run
The platform fades the night rolls on
And for once my heart is done
