Lyrics

The kettle sings though no one's there
To lift it from the flame
The hallway folds its hands each night
And softly speaks my name
The curtains breathe without the wind
The floor recalls my feet
The quiet knows exactly where
My lonely heart will sleep
When every clock forgets to tick
When every candle bends
I never feel I'm all alone
I have my friends
Dead silence holds me tenderly
Gentler than living hands
When every soul has turned away
They always understand
Play another record slow
Watch the empty corners sway
No one else can hear them laugh
But they love to dance that way
The wallpaper remembers songs
No radio has known
The staircase bows beneath a weight
That never leaves a bone
The photographs all face the wall
Until the needle falls
Then someone smooths forgotten lace
Though no one comes at all
I leave another chair pulled out
Another place to spend
The room grows warm enough for all
I have my friends
Dead silence wraps around my voice
Soft as winter snow
They never ask me where I've been
They've always seemed to know
Play another record slow
Every shadow starts to spin
Empty shoes remember steps
And someone asks me to begin
Perhaps they're only dust and dreams
Perhaps they're only air
Then tell me who keeps perfect time
When music fills the stairs
Who hums before the record starts
Who bows before the end
Who waits beside the gramophone
Like old forgotten friends
Don't turn the music down tonight
They're happiest this way
Every melody becomes
Another place to stay
When the last note disappears
The silence still remains
Someone squeezes softly
Though no living hand has changed
The record stops
They don't
They don't
