[Verse 1]
In the quiet of our rooms, the clock forgets to breathe
Your eyes used to find mine, now they drift like fallen leaves
The laughter wore a veil I can't quite pull away
I reach across the bed and find the space remains the same
[Pre-Chorus]
I count the footsteps of a love that’s grown so thin
If hearts can break in silence, where do you begin again?
[Chorus]
I miss the warmth that used to own this space
I miss the you I thought would stay through every ache
I’m learning to listen to the hollow in your smile
And wondering if I should stay while I still can
[Verse 2]
The photos on the dresser blink with softer light
A girl you were glows in frames I can’t forget at night
I talk to my own shadow, it answers clear and true
It says: hold on or go, but either way I’ll lose you
[Pre-Chorus]
The room grows colder with each whispered goodbye
If love is a fortress, I’m running out of ally
[Chorus]
I miss the warmth that used to own this space
I miss the you I thought would stay through every ache
I’m learning to listen to the hollow in your smile
And wondering if I should stay while I still can
[Bridge]
If my heart must shatter to survive another day
I’ll choose the tremble over fading away
There’s a line I won’t cross, a place I won’t pretend
If love can’t keep us whole, I’ll learn to mend
[Chorus]
I miss the warmth that used to own this space
I miss the you I thought would stay through every ache
I’m learning to listen to the hollow in your smile
And wondering if I should stay while I still can
[Outro]
When the last goodbye is spoken, the night will softly part
I’ll carry your memory like a map around my heart
If the heart can survive one more hurt, I’ll choose to stay or go
But for now I stay in the ache I know
