Right Now

You used to quote Galileo to me in the room

Where you kept all your books and the pictures of the moon

And even though I knew it was never gonna last

Some things are better like that, mmm

I think about that moment with your dad in the fall

You never missed a beat and he loved to show you off

I didn't know then that his time was so short

Some things we shouldn't ignore, mmm

Like the cracks in the earth in your eyes when you hurt

How the boards in the floor left a crease in your shirt

That's how I remember you right now

Like the fog on the street, how it made me feel

When you worked 'til you crashed with your hands on the wheel

That's how I remember you right now, mmm

Somewhere in the walls of your second story flat

I hid a love letter that I can't get back

With a picture of your dad and a word on a key

"I hope you remember me"

Like the cracks in the earth in your eyes when you hurt

How the boards in the floor left a crease in your shirt

That's how I remember you right now

Like the fog on the street, how it made me feel

When you worked 'til you crashed with your hands on the wheel

That's how I remember you right now, mmm

I know I shouldn't pull the thread on the sweater that I'm wearing

That I can't help but unravel

My heart, it gets the best of me

You said you'd never fall in love in the dead of the winter

That's how I remember you right now, right now
