Lyrics

Intro

Mm-mm, ooh-oh, uh-huh (yeah)

Soft horns, slow piano — breathe in, breathe out

Verse

You left your coat on the back of the chair

Cigarette ash in the tray like you were still here

The old clock keeps cutting the same tired hour

But the room remembers the weight of your laugh, the way it poured

Pre-chorus

I keep reaching for things that used to fit my hands

Photographs with corners bent, now under dim lamps

I tell myself it's just a sound, just a picture on a shelf

But when the light falls right, it feels like you're there again

Chorus

Remembe (remember), when we moved slow, slow

Remembe (remember), how your fingers learned my name (learned my name)

Remembe, the vinyl played our easy songs, yeah (ooh)

Remembe, the way you stayed until the morning came

Remembe, remembe, remembe (oh-oh)

Verse

There’s coffee in the sink with a lipstick ring

A note in faded ink that still makes the last line sing

You left like weather does, soft then sudden rain

But baby, in the quiet I can feel you again

Pre-chorus

I trace the outline of the place you used to stand

Let the melody carry me back to your hands

I tell the night to keep your name tucked close and warm

But my mouth keeps calling it like a charm

Chorus

Remembe (remember), when we moved slow, slow

Remembe (remember), how your fingers learned my name (learned my name)

Remembe, the vinyl played our easy songs, yeah (ooh)

Remembe, the way you stayed until the morning came

Remembe, remembe, remembe (mm-mm)

Bridge

Oh — sometimes I catch your shadow in the doorway (in the doorway)

Sometimes I swear I hear you laugh like you've been away (you've been away)

I close my eyes and taste the salt of every goodbye (every goodbye)

But I keep calling out, I keep calling out your name

Remembe — remembe — remembe (yeah)

Chorus

Remembe (remember), when we moved slow, slow

Remembe (remember), how your fingers learned my name (learned my name)

Remembe, the vinyl played our easy songs, yeah (ooh)

Remembe, the way you stayed until the morning came

Remembe, remembe, remembe (oh-oh)

Remembe, remembe, remembe (mm-mm)
