[Verse] We left it on beneath the rain, That faded strip, the sun and pain, Still clings like stories no one tells, A ticket back where we once fell. [Pre-Chorus] The crowd is gone, but not the sound, It lingers in the grey around, [Chorus] Oh, this wristband's got my heart tied tight, A little knot that holds the night, Ink and thread from summer’s end, A quiet place where we pretend. Oh, this faded band, it’s all I own, A thousand miles from coming home, But every time I see it there, I’m back beneath that open air. [Verse] The rain washes off the dirt and dust, But not these colors, not this trust, We wore it proud through endless days, Now it’s just a soft embrace. [Pre-Chorus] The lights have dimmed, but still it gleams, A summer caught inside our dreams, [Chorus] Oh, this wristband's got my heart tied tight, A little knot that holds the night, Ink and thread from summer’s end, A quiet place where we pretend. Oh, this faded band, it’s all I own, A thousand miles from coming home, But every time I see it there, I’m back beneath that open air. [Bridge] So let the rain come falling down, It can’t erase what we have found, Wrapped around my wrist, you’ll stay, A whispered song that won’t fade away. [Chorus] Oh, this wristband's got my heart tied tight, A little knot that holds the night, Ink and thread from summer’s end, A quiet place where we pretend. Oh, this faded band, it’s all I own, A thousand miles from coming home, But every time I see it there, I’m back beneath that open air. [Outro] Back beneath that open air, Back beneath that open air.
