That navy blue hanging where you used to stand
Same shade you wore walking out
My eyes play tricks in the afternoon
Turn a code into you somehow
I know the difference between fabric and
skin Between what's gone and what remains
But my heart doesn't wait for my head to catch up
It just stops all the same
It's the color that does it,
just a code on a hook
But for half a second you're here The way you leaned in the frame
The way the light hit your face Before I blink and you disappear
I've thought about moving it a hundred
times Hanging it somewhere I won't see
Maybe I need these small collapses These moments you come back to me
It's the color that does it,
just a code on a hook
But for half a second you're here The way you leaned in the frame
The way the light hit your face Before
I blink and you're not really here
Before I blink and you disappear
