00:12You left a piece of heavy brass Right on the counter by the glass
00:18Said if I ever make it down I've got a home in your new town
00:26I slide it on my key ring now It keeps me quiet somehow
00:35600 miles of cold gray sky Can't change the way you say goodbye
00:40I feel the metal through my coat Swallow down a dry throat
00:46I still carry your spare key Like a promise that you made to me
00:54You said the door is never locked No matter how the clock ticks on
01:01Yeah, I still carry your spare key It keeps you close to me
01:10I traced the edges with my thumb When all my feelings turned to numb
01:16You took a plane across the coast Leaving the thing I needed most
01:24But I hold the metal in my hand To remember where I stand
01:33600 miles of cold gray sky Can't change the way you say goodbye
01:38I feel the metal through my coat Swallow down a dry throat
01:44I still carry your spare key Like a promise that you made to me
01:52You said the door is never locked No matter how the clock ticks on
01:58Yeah, I still carry your spare key Keeps you close to me
02:08I don't need a map or a reason to fly I just need to know that you're waiting inside
02:18If I show up unannounced late at night Will you turn on the front porch light
02:26Will you let me inside? Let me inside
02:30I still carry your spare key Like a promise that you made to me
02:38You said the door is never locked No matter how the clock ticks on
02:45Yeah, I still carry your spare key Keeps you close to me
02:52Yeah, the door is never locked I still carry your spare key
