It Reminds Me

Intro

Mm-mm, oh-oh

(yeah, yeah)

Verse

Coffee on the windowsill, rain on the sill, and you laugh at the way I spill

Your old jacket draped over my chair, smells like the night we didn't care

I walk past the corner where the subway sighs, neon-free but your name flies by

A song on the radio, a crooked line, it pulls me back every single time

Pre-chorus

And I try to keep the distance, try to keep my hands to myself

But some small thing — a face, a street — starts a wildfire on the shelf

(re-re-reminds me) of the way you said my name like it was weather and it held

(oh-oh) yeah

Chorus

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me)

It reminds me — reminds me of you (oh-oh, oh)

A laughing joke, a broken shoe, a midnight truth, a morning blue

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me, reminds me)

Verse

Sunset in the doorway, your keys still singing on the hook

I fold the map of conversations into pages that we never took

A postcard from a summer that forgot how to cool its heat

A melody that keeps on turning, like the soles beneath our feet

Pre-chorus

I tell myself the city heals, that time can smooth a crooked seam

But paper boats of memory keep floating back into my dream

(ta-ta-touch) like fingerprints on glass, like a word that won't let go

(uh-huh, uh-huh)

Chorus

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me)

It reminds me — reminds me of you (yeah, yeah)

The light that fell through your old room, a coffee stain, a single tune

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me, reminds me)

Bridge

Sometimes I swear I see you in the back of every crowd

A silhouette that learns my silence, then laughs it out loud

(he-hey) I taste regret like sugar on my tongue, sweet and slow

And every little ordinary thing becomes a radio

Chorus

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me)

It reminds me — reminds me of you (oh-oh)

A crooked grin, a hurried goodbye, a streetlight blinking: hello, hi

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me, reminds me)

It reminds me — reminds me of you (reminds me)

It reminds me — reminds me of you (oh-oh, oh)
