Lyrics
Verse 1
Cold rail
Under my hands
Coffee in a paper cup
Breath making tiny clouds
You’re gone
Sun’s coming up
Taxi horns under my feet
Sky pulling off its dust
Chorus
I’m on the rooftop at first light
Heart breaking in a soft way
Sad
But I’m staying
To watch the city wake
I’m on the rooftop at first light
Tear tracks starting to fade
It hurts
But I’m staying
To watch the city wake
Verse 2
Phones buzz
I let them ring
Windows flicker on and off
Like everybody’s thinking
Your name
In every sound
Distant train and barking dog
All of it calming down
Chorus
I’m on the rooftop at first light
Heart breaking in a soft way
Sad
But I’m staying
To watch the city wake
I’m on the rooftop at first light
Tear tracks starting to fade
It hurts
But I’m staying
To watch the city wake
Bridge
Maybe this is how
Letting go begins (oh)
Quiet as the smoke
Curling from my lips
I’m not okay
But I’m not afraid
If I can stand here once
I can stand here again
Chorus
I’m on the rooftop at first light
Heart breaking in a soft way
Sad
But I’m staying
To watch the city wake
I’m on the rooftop at first light
Tear tracks starting to fade
It hurts
But I’m staying
To watch the city wake
