WAITING FOR THE KNOCK

It's just a leftover umbrella
But it's living in my head
Leaning on the doorway
Like you leaning on my chest
I tell myself it's nothing
Just a thing you must've dropped
But I keep walking past it
Waiting for the knock

You left your umbrella....
By my front door mat...
Folded like a secret...
Still dripping from the past...
Simple black and chrome handle...
Ordinary object, nothing more...
Funny how this little thing...
Makes me want you so much more....
...

It's just a leftover umbrella
But it's living in my head
Leaning on the doorway
Like you leaning on my chest
I tell myself it's nothing
Just a thing you must've dropped
But I keep walking past it
Waiting for the knock

Weather app is screaming....
Storms all week in red....
You're out there with your jacket...
Rain running down your neck...
I should send a message...
"Do you want it back?"
Type it out...
Then backspace...
Scared of what you'll ask...
....

It's just a leftover umbrella
But it's living in my head (in my head)
Leaning on the doorway
Like you leaning on my chest (on my chest)
I tell myself it's nothing (nothing)
Just a thing you must've dropped
But I keep walking past it
Waiting for the knock (waiting for the knock)

Maybe next clear Friday
I'll leave it on a train
Let some stranger take it
Trade this heartache for the rain

It's just a leftover umbrella
But it's living in my head (in my head)
Leaning on the doorway
Like you leaning on my chest (oh my chest)
I tell myself it's nothing (nothing !)
Just a thing you must've dropped
But I keep walking past it
Waiting for the knock (waiting for the knock)

Waiting for the knock...
...
Waiting for the knock...
....
