And all the footprints we left in this room

A smile in the hall - framed on the wall

Shoes on the floor - they're intertwined

Just like the touch - we left behind

Walk through that door - and say no more

Say no more easy alibis to put out the fire

As from your lips the words that never fail

See ya from time to time once in awhile on down the line
