[Verse]
Stale breath and morning sex
Laying on the other side of your bed
Just one more second before we
Take a walk and dance around the subject
Like we’re not in love yet
Just playing with the concept

[Pre Chorus]
But there’s the postcard on my dresser from the day we spent together
There’s the ticket from the portrait gallery
And there’s the bottle cap from dinner, and the note left on my mirror
It’s so funny that I kept them all in case

[Chorus]
But now, all that I’m left with
A shelf full of remnants
The relics of everything we almost could have been
Something so precious
Know that I meant it
When I said I’d never felt like this before
And I could wait a couple years
For you to leave then reappear
And tell me that I never left your mind
But now, all that I’m left with
A shelf full of remnants
The relics of everything we almost could have been
[Verse]
I listen to you talk about your passions
Such a perfect match but
I just can’t compete with what you live and breathe
Accept that though you’re heavy hearted
You would have if you wanted
Found a way to try to make the time for me

[Pre Chorus]
The postcard on your dresser from the day we spent together
The tickets from the time we missed the train
And there’s the voice notes and the pictures, I was right there at your fingers
You can leave me here but not without a trace

[Chorus]
But now, all that I’m left with
A shelf full of remnants
The relics of everything we almost could have been
Something so precious
Know that I meant it
When I said I’d never felt like this before
And I could wait a couple years
For you to leave then reappear
And tell me that I never left your mind
But now, all that I’m left with
A shelf full of remnants
The relics of everything we almost could have been
