[Verse 1] Your blue cup’s waiting by the sink The kettle clicks, the room goes still I read the note you left beneath it: “We’ve said enough. We always will.” [Pre-Chorus] No slammed door, no last defense Just two coats lifting from the chair [Chorus] It needs to end, so let it end No borrowed promise, no pretend I’ll take my keys, you keep the view The morning can belong to two It needs to end, and now we know A kind goodbye is still goodbye [Verse 2] The bakery is opening downstairs A paper bag rolls in the breeze You ask if I’ll remember this I say, “The small things, mostly.” [Pre-Chorus] Your hand rests easy on the frame Mine finds the pocket of my coat [Chorus] It needs to end, so let it end No borrowed promise, no pretend I’ll take my keys, you keep the view The morning can belong to two It needs to end, and now we know A kind goodbye is still goodbye [Bridge] If we meet where the harbor bends We won’t have to make amends You can tell me how you’ve been I can smile and mean it then [Final Chorus] It needed to end, so now it ends No bitter score for us to spend I take my keys, you keep the view The morning opens up for two It needed to end, and now we know A kind goodbye can let us go [Outro] The kettle clicks The door swings wide We leave the morning on our side
