[Verse 1] We leaned on the rail Salt on your sleeves Your suitcase by the bench Like it knew you'd leave You said, "I leave at dawn" I laughed, looked down My heart was all wet shoes On that splintered ground [Pre-Chorus] I kept it in my mouth Like a coin too small to spend Now the tide is moving in And I can't pretend [Chorus] I love you, I love you Don't let it go I love you, I love you Before that road You were my almost My maybe too long I love you, I love you Tell me I'm wrong [Verse 2] The ferris wheel blinked once Then it went still You tucked your hair behind That jacket zipper chill I watched the last bus hiss Past the bait shop sign You smiled like you'd heard me And left me out of time [Pre-Chorus] My hands were in my pockets My brave was paper thin The morning had your name on it And I was standing in [Chorus] I love you, I love you Don't let it go I love you, I love you Before that road You were my almost My maybe too long I love you, I love you Tell me I'm wrong [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] You stepped in close Like maybe you knew The whole wide dark Was shaking through I said it low You held your breath You touched my wrist And nothing else [Final Chorus] I love you, I love you Don't let it go I love you, I love you Before that road You were my first chance My last train song I love you, I love you Stay till dawn
