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
