Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Paper fragments scattered on my floor tonight
Each one carries fragments from July
The ink has faded just a bit with time
But every word still makes me wonder why
Your return address is overseas
And summer's getting further from my reach
[Pre-chorus]
The stamps tell tales of distant shores
While autumn leaves drift past my door
The air grows crisp, I feel it change
As memories start to rearrange
[Chorus]
These postcards still smell like summer
But winter's coming faster now
(Coming faster, faster now)
These postcards still tell our story
But pages keep on turning somehow
(Keep on turning, turning now)
[Post-chorus]
Time zones apart, but still so clear
Your words float through the atmosphere
[Verse 2]
Remember counting stars from rooftops high?
The trains below kept marking midnight's pace
We made our plans beneath the August sky
Now different stars shine on your face
I trace the lines you wrote back then
When possibilities had no end
[Bridge]
Sayonara wasn't in our vocabulary
Until the day it had to be
Now photographs and memories
Are all that's left for company
[Solo]
[Instrumental funk bass and synth section]
[Chorus]
These postcards still smell like summer
But winter's coming faster now
(Coming faster, faster now)
These postcards still tell our story
But pages keep on turning somehow
(Keep on turning, turning now)
[Post-chorus]
Time zones apart, but still so clear
Your words float through the atmosphere
(Through the atmosphere)
Like messages across the years
They echo what we left unspoken here
