Lyrics
Drop
Dah-dah dah-dah dah
Ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum
Verse 1
Neon drips on wet sidewalk
Umbrella tapping out the rain
I keep a matchbook with your number
But nobody answers when I call your name
Pre-Chorus
Smoke curls up the stairwell
Somebody left a lamp a-glow
I'm counting train cars in the distance
Wondering how a good man lets you go
Chorus
So play it low and slow
Horns behind the rain
That old AM is crackling
Bringing me back again
Play it low and slow
Mm
Verse 2
My coat still smells like your perfume
The jukebox spins a forgotten tune
Every accent on that mixed-up reel
Is your silhouette against the moon
Pre-Chorus
The floorboard creaks like a confession
I trace your name into the dust
Somebody wound the clock too tightly
And every hour aches with us
Chorus
So play it low and slow
Horns behind the rain
That old AM is crackling
Bringing me back again
Play it low and slow
Bridge
And the credits roll
While the house lights fade
One last note hangs
In the air I made
Drop
Dah-dah dah-dah dah
Ba-dum ba-dum ba-dum
Chorus
So play it low and slow
Horns behind the rain
That old AM is crackling
Bringing me back again
Play it low and slow
Mm-hmm
