Couldn't work the little clasp
Always had to ask for help
Last Tuesday by the kitchen sink
I did it by myself
Left it in a coffee cup
The one I never use
Reached to turn the water off
And there was proof of you
A little lighter
Where the gold had been
I pulled my sleeve down
When a friend walked in
Took it off, the summer stayed
One pale ribbon wouldn't fade
Nothing shining on my skin
Still I catch you there again
When I reach across the table
When I brush away my hair
Such a little thing to notice
Such a lot of you still there
Found a picture from the coast
Your thumb beside the clasp
You were trying to fasten it
I was trying not to laugh
Now I'm standing in a shop
With a silver chain to try
But it sits a little wider
And I know the reason why
I tell her, "Maybe"
Then I give it back
Walk out with nothing
In a paper bag
Took it off, the summer stayed
One pale ribbon wouldn't fade
Nothing shining on my skin
Still I catch you there again
When I reach across the table
When I brush away my hair
Such a little thing to notice
Such a lot of you still there
I don't want another August
I don't need you at my door
But I liked the girl who wore it
I can let her have that much
She was happy in that picture
I don't have to cut her out
I put the bracelet in a drawer
And leave the photograph around
Took it off, the summer stayed
One pale ribbon, softer shade
Nothing shining on my skin
I roll my sleeves up again
When I reach across the table
Let the daylight find me there
Just a little thing to notice
I don't need to hide or wear
Keys and coffee
Down the stairs
Sun across my empty wrist
I leave it there
