{intimate
fingerpicked acoustic guitar} {gentle warm Rhodes piano swells} {soft vinyl crackle}
Your coffee cup is sitting on the stand
Tracing patterns where you used to hold my hand
(mmm) Now the silence is a heavy,
crowded room
Left behind inside the afternoon
Oh, we built a beautiful house of glass
But shadows fall and the hours pass
And I'm sweeping up the pieces on the floor
Since you don't live here anymore
{soft downtempo beat drops in} I keep the porch light shining through
the rain
Just to pretend that nothing has to change
(ahhh) But the coat rack by the door is half-awake
Counting all the space we couldn't make
Oh, we built a beautiful house of glass
But shadows fall and the hours pass
And I'm sweeping up the pieces on the floor
Since you don't live here anymore {beat continues,
warm and controlled}
No more... (hmmmm) Just the pieces on the floor...
{beat
fades
out} {fingerpicked
acoustic
guitar till
end}
