Lyrics
Verse 1
Turned out the door
Cold wind on my face
Two words lingered
Couldn’t make sense
Rain drips along windows
Suit seams soaked through
All I wanted—
I wanted you
Chorus
Oh, but we keep spinning
Circling round and round the reason
Oh, our hearts keep missing
Something that slipped through the evening
Post-Chorus
La la, la la
La la, la la
Verse 2
Silence on Sunday
No messages ring
Empty kettle waiting
I let the phone sing
Remember the laughter
That lasted so long
Now there’s only
A half-finished song
Chorus
Oh, but we keep spinning
Circling round and round the reason
Oh, our hearts keep missing
Something that slipped through the evening
Post-Chorus
La la, la la
La la, la la
Bridge
Maybe I was hoping
Maybe I was wrong
Maybe you were drifting,
Maybe you’ve been gone
Gone, gone (gone, gone)
Verse 3
Snapshot in the hallway
Standing by the stair
I blink, then it’s blurry
You’re not really there
Chorus
Oh, but we keep spinning
Circling round and round the reason
Oh, our hearts keep missing
Something we lost in the evening
Post-Chorus
La la, la la
La la, la la
Outro
Still I walk
Still I wonder
Still I want you (want you, want you)
Still I wander
