Start Again

Verse 1

Found your letters in a box of summer things

Postmarks faded like the photographs inside

You wrote about the rain more than you wrote of me

I guess that's how I knew we'd never quite collide

Pre-Chorus

And I keep turning pages

Looking for the one where you stayed

Chorus

Maybe I still hold your sweater

Maybe I still say your name

A softer ache that lingers

Trying to start again

Verse 2

You loved the little windows in the high cathedral wall

I loved the crowded station and the endless northern call

We made our peace in whispers on a busy Tuesday night

Two different kinds of quiet learning how to say goodbye

Pre-Chorus

And I keep turning corners

Half-expecting you to wave

Chorus

Maybe I still hold your sweater

Maybe I still say your name

A softer ache that lingers

Trying to start again

Bridge

I don't wait for the phone anymore

I don't count the hours till you're gone

Just a room with a chair you once sat in

And a song that goes on and on

Chorus

Maybe I still hold your sweater

Maybe I still say your name

A softer ache that lingers

Trying to start again

Outro

Trying to start again

Mm

Trying to start again
