[Verse 1] Your sweater on the chair again Like it learned how to wait Rain tapping at the window Soft hands against the glass I pull the hood up like a roof Make a chapel of the sleeves Your warmth caught in the cotton Like it forgot how to leave [Pre-Chorus] I know it is only fabric I know it is only blue But the room gets less enormous When it smells a little like you [Chorus] Borrowed hoodie weather I wear the almost of you Warm sleeves, bad timing Nothing I can prove Your warmth caught in the cotton Your ghost in faded blue I know it isn’t holding me But it feels like something true [Verse 2] The cuffs fall past my fingers Like your hands forgot to go I fold myself inside it When the evening gets too cold There’s rain in the streetlight There’s detergent in the dark I press my cheek against the collar Like a secret with a heart [Pre-Chorus] I don’t call it missing I don’t make it say your name I just let the small warmth stay there Like a candle in the rain [Chorus] Borrowed hoodie weather I wear the almost of you Warm sleeves, bad timing Nothing I can prove Your warmth caught in the cotton Your ghost in faded blue I know it isn’t holding me But it feels like something true [Bridge] Maybe comfort is a thread That learns the shape of where you’ve been Maybe distance is less cruel When there’s softness I can live in Maybe this is only shelter Maybe this is how I cope A borrowed piece of ordinary Turning into something close I won’t ask it to be more Than what your body left behind But tonight it keeps me warmer Than the weather in my mind [Final Chorus] Borrowed hoodie weather I wear the almost of you Warm sleeves, bad timing Nothing I can prove Your warmth caught in the cotton Your ghost in faded blue I know it isn’t holding me But it feels like something true Borrowed hoodie weather Rain soft on the roof I pull the sleeves around me And keep a little piece of you [Outro] Your sweater on the chair again Like it learned how to stay I wear the almost of you Until the morning fades
