V5.5:Gloves Beside the Telephone

[Verse 1] You left your gloves beside the telephone One button loose, a thread of rain-dark wool 夜はまだ　終わらないふりをして And every clock was lying beautiful I poured two fingers for the empty chair 琥珀の影　静かに揺れる Your name was still warm in the breathing air Like some old debt a tired man never paid [Chorus] Come back, darling, if the road lets you 約束はいらない　ただ真実を I have learned what lonely men can't hide 鍵は開いていても　心は閉じたまま [Verse 2] The bartender remembers how you smiled Before the winter took the color out 「世界は・・・ひどいね」 そう笑った Then disappeared before I could find out A trumpet sighs behind the velvet screen The piano counts the favors we regret 同じコートで　同じ夜を歩く And curse the rain for making me forget [Chorus] Come back, darling, if the road lets you 約束はいらない　ただ真実を I have learned what lonely men can't hide 鍵は開いていても　心は閉じたまま [Bridge] If love is just a wager dressed in grace Then I have lost with dignity to spare 負けたことくらい　わかってるさ Still, every stranger wearing your old face Can make a ruined heart sit up and stare [Verse 3] The morning will arrive without a sound The chairs will climb their tables one by one 写真を伏せて　夜をしまえば I'll tell myself the worst of it is done But somewhere past the last train's fading cry Where all the brave and broken stories start 夜の片隅　ひとつだけ空けておく For the hand that never left my heart [Final Chorus] Come back, darling, if the road lets you 約束はいらない　ただ真実を I have learned what lonely men can't hide 鍵は開いていても　心は閉じたまま [Outro] The room goes dark, the bartender is gone 電話のそばに　君の面影ひとつ
