Lyrics
[verse]
I still set two cups out in the morning
Before I catch myself and put one back
The house still holds the shape of you inside it
Every room still carries what I lack
[verse]
I talk to you like you're still listening
I tell you how my day went, foolishly
The silence never answers but I keep on
Like some part of you could still hear me
[chorus]
Since you've been gone away, gone away
I'm learning how to breathe a different way
The world moved on but I'm still standing here
Talking to a ghost that isn't near
[verse]
I found your handwriting inside a old book
A grocery list, a note, a small goodbye
I held it like it was the last thing left here
And let myself just sit and cry
[chorus]
Since you've been gone away, gone away
I'm learning how to breathe a different way
The world moved on but I'm still standing here
Talking to a ghost that isn't near
[bridge]
Maybe missing you is just another way
Of keeping you a little bit alive
Maybe grief's the last thing love can offer
When there's no other way to arrive
[verse]
So I'll keep the porch light burning nightly
Not because I think you'll walk back in
Just because the light still feels like something
You would've wanted me to begin
[chorus]
Since you've been gone away, gone away
I'm learning how to breathe a different way
The world moved on but I'm still standing here
Talking to a ghost that isn't near
