She placed

her ring on the sill,
G
Dishes piled high
F
She's on the front porch step
C
G
And the air smells like snow
C
She's thinking of the siege
to come
Am
And how she'll miss those weekends
In the park with the sun on her face
Dm

And her book by her side and that
C
G
Lingering taste that he left on her tongue
Verse 2
F
He lifts his glass from the table
C
G
It leaves a ring where it stood
F
C
He sees the light from the window
G
Caress her like he knows he should
C
He's remembering the first time
he kissed her
Am
And how he'd wake
And immediately he'd miss her,
Dm
Like a spell, with each breath,
F

He'd taste her breath like a haunting,
G

Irritating as hell

C
He puts her ring on her finger,
G
She brushes back his hair
F
He takes a sip from his glass,
C
G
She in hales the cold fall air
C
And they're thinking of the
long road ahead
Am
And the strength that they will need
Just to reach the end
Dm
And there in the silence
F
they search for
The balance between this
C
fear that they feel
G
And a love that has graced their lives
