Front Steps

Where did it all go wrong?

As I sit here and sing this song

I don't know where it went wrong now

I don't know where it went wrong now

I'm just sitting on the front steps

Looking at the snow

And it falls

And it falls

Covering everything we were

Little ghosts in the yard

Fading under all that blur

If I knew how to turn back

I’d be running through that door

But I'm stuck on these front steps

Watching us disappear some more

Your cup by the kitchen sink

Lipstick print I never cleaned

Our fight still hanging in the hall

Like a coat you never take off

Car tracks leading down the street

Only sound is my own teeth

And it falls

And it falls

Covering everything we were

Little ghosts in the yard

Fading under all that blur

If I knew how to turn back

I’d be running through that door

But I'm stuck on these front steps

Watching us disappear some more

Was it one sharp word?

Was it years of quiet nights?

I replay every second

Till the dark turns into light

But the only answer I get

Is the hush of frozen air (oh)

And your name in my breath

Going nowhere

And it falls

And it falls

Covering everything we were

Little ghosts in the yard

Fading under all that blur

If I knew how to turn back

I’d be running through that door

But I'm stuck on these front steps

Watching us disappear some more
