Mango Ashes

Lyrics

Verse 1
Your shirt still hangs on my chair
Cinnamon trace in the air
I rinse your glass again
Like I can rinse you out

You left your gold hoop here
It catches the kitchen light
I turn it in my hand
Till the room goes soft and black

Pre-Chorus
And I act fine, I act cool
But my pulse says your name
Every time the door clicks shut
I want you back the same

Chorus
Come close, come close
Don’t let me fade
Come close, come close
Stay in my shade
You got me, you got me
Slow and undone
Come close, come close
Till I’m your one

Verse 2
I tried to dance it off
In a room full of strangers
But every move I make
Feels like it belongs to danger

Your laugh in my memory
Hits like a cheap old wine
Sweet on the tongue at first
Then it burns the whole night

Pre-Chorus
And I act fine, I act cool
But my pulse says your name
Every time the door clicks shut
I want you back the same

Chorus
Come close, come close
Don’t let me fade
Come close, come close
Stay in my shade
You got me, you got me
Slow and undone
Come close, come close
Till I’m your one

Bridge
If you’re leaving, leave slow
Let me learn your shape
One more look, one more touch
One more honest ache

Chorus
Come close, come close
Don’t let me fade
Come close, come close
Stay in my shade
You got me, you got me
Slow and undone
Come close, come close
Till I’m your one
