It didn’t shed a tear
Didn’t cause the floorboards to creak
Didn’t slam the door
But kept the windows open
And the record playing
It didn’t leave a scar
But carved a memory
A crease on the fabric of time
A silent breath of a stranger’s goodbye

It didn’t shed a tear
Didn’t cause the floorboards to creak
Didn’t slam the door
But kept the windows open
And the record playing
It didn’t leave a scar
But carved a memory
A crease on the fabric of time
A silent breath of a stranger’s goodbye
