snow in my backyard

[Verse 1: DawnRooney27]
You pulled up in the middle of July
Said you just needed some air, but stayed the night
Talked ‘bout stars, said the moon felt shy
Now I’m out here wonderin’ why you never said goodbye
Your footprints melt where the truth should stay
And I’m still sweeping pieces of your yesterday
Every time I think I’m free
You drift back just to freeze me

[Chorus: Sadie]
Like snow in my backyard
You fall soft, but you leave scars
I blink and you’re gone, gone far
Meltin’ through my hands like heartache art
You come when the world ain’t expectin’
Disappear when I start confessin’
You’re my winter, cold then gone
Snow in my backyard

[Verse 2: DawnRooney27]
You said “don’t wait up,” so I tried to move on
But the ghost of you keep singin’ that song
Left your hoodie by the fence, guess that’s your way
Of sayin’ you’ll be back when skies turn gray
You’re a memory in 4K snow
Pretty to look at, painful to know
And I’m out here barefoot, still
Waitin’ on what the next storm will spill

[Chorus: Sadie & DawnRooney27]
Like snow in my backyard
You fall soft, but you leave scars
I blink and you’re gone, gone far
Meltin’ through my hands like heartache art
You come when the world ain’t expectin’
Disappear when I start confessin’
You’re my winter, cold then gone
Snow in my backyard

[Bridge: Sadie]
I built an angel outta pain
You watched her fade in the rain
Guess we both got what we came for
Fleeting warmth and an open door
If you’re comin’ back, don’t say
Just fall again, then melt away

[Chorus: Sadie, DawnRooney27]
Like snow in my backyard (Yeah)
You fall soft, but you leave scars (You leave scars)
I blink and you’re gone, gone far (Far away)
Meltin’ through my hands like heartache art
You come when the world ain’t expectin’ (Expectin’)
Disappear when I start confessin’ (Confessin’)
You’re my winter, cold then gone
Snow in my backyard
