Lyrics
Verse 1
Floorboards
Wet cotton in the wicker basket
Cold tile against my knees
Late night
I am digging through the dark
Searching
Tracing the shape of where you been
Chorus
I just sniff your panties
I just sniff your panties
That you threw into the wash
Lavender and salt
The way you smell before you leave
I hold it in my chest
I hold it in my chest
I hold it in my chest
Post-Chorus
Oh girl
I am losing my mind
Just a little bit more
Yeah
Right here on the floor
Verse 2
Stained lace
Silk ribbons tied in knots
Pink
I find the ones you wore for him
My vision goes blurry
I breathe it deep
Deep
Deeper than I should
Salt on my tongue
The lace is soft
Worn thin
Chorus
I just sniff your panties
I just sniff your panties
That you threw into the wash
Lavender and salt
The way you smell before you leave
I hold it in my chest
I hold it in my chest
I hold it in my chest
Bridge
The water starts to hum
The machine is getting loud
Soon you will be clean
Soon you will be gone
I am begging for a minute
I am praying for a scent
Just one more
Just one more
Chorus
I just sniff your panties
I just sniff your panties
That you threw into the wash
Lavender and salt
The way you smell before you leave
I hold it in my chest
I hold it in my chest
I hold it in my chest
Outro
Before the cycle starts
Before the soap takes hold
I keep your ghost
Right here
In the wicker
In the dark
Oh baby
Don't turn the dial
Not yet
