Lyrics
Circles And X's
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the doorway soaking wet
It's raining cats and dogs
There's nothing for us to regret
The fire needs more logs
You manage to crack a smile
The sky is big and open
You stay for just a little while
The vows have all been broken
[Chorus:]
Circles and X's by your name
Day after day will bring a change
Some things will stay the same
Circles and X's by your name
Nothing left to be sorry for
But I still sit and sob
When I see you walk across the floor
And put your hand around the doorknob
You head down the drive and hope
The Chevy decides to start
I'm just at the end of my rope
And you're just tugging at my heart
You turn around to wave goodbye
You look at me and linger
The morning hears you sigh
And sunlight reflects off the silver on your finger
[Chorus 2x]
Some things will stay the same
Circles and X's by your name
