Verse 1
There’s a jacket on the chair you used to wear,
Still smells like you, I pretend you’re there,
The room feels loud when it’s quiet at night,
Every little thing just don’t sit right.
I found your note in an old paperback,
Just your name written, never coming back,
I keep it close like a fragile truth,
Trying to remember the sound of you.

Pre-Chorus
They say time heals, but it just rearranges,
Turns love into memories, memories into phrases.

Chorus
I left your coffee cup right by the sink,
Like maybe you’ll come back before I blink,
I talk to your picture like you reply,
Smile through the pain, then I break down and cry,
If heaven’s a place where you’re finally warm,
I hope you know I’m still holding on.

Verse 2
There’s groceries in bags that I didn’t need,
Bought your favorite things out of habit, see,
The cashier asked how my day’s been going,
I said “I’m fine,” but she didn’t know it.
Every song we loved hits different now,
Every promise feels heavier somehow,
I’m learning how to live with the space you left,
With a heart half-full and half a mess.

Pre-Chorus
I’d trade all the words I never said,
For one more quiet moment instead.

Chorus
I left your coffee cup right by the sink,
Like maybe you’ll come back before I blink,
I talk to your picture like you reply,
Smile through the pain, then I break down and cry,
If heaven’s a place where you’re finally warm,
I hope you know I’m still holding on.

Bridge
I don’t need answers, I don’t need signs,
Just hope you found peace where the sun still shines,
If love’s what remains when everything’s gone,
Then you’re still here, you’re still my song.

Final Chorus 
So I’ll keep the light on a little too long,
And sing your name in a broken song,
If someday I laugh without feeling wrong,
Know you helped me learn to be strong.
