Lyrics by Gloria V

Had to let you go

Genres: Blues

Verse 1
I still leave the light on by the door
Like you might come home like before
Your coffee cup is where you left it
I touch it sometimes, just to feel something

I hear your voice inside this room
In every silence, every empty tune
I tell myself I'm getting better
Then your memory breaks me all over

Pre-Chorus
And I don't know how to let you go
When you're the only thing I know

Chorus
I miss you in the middle of the night
When nobody's here to see me cry
I hold my pillow like it's you
But it never holds me like you used to

I keep talking to a photograph
Knowing you will never answer back
If loving you is all I have left
Then I'll love you till there's nothing left

Verse 2
I stopped playing our favorite song
It hurts too much when it comes along
There's a little piece of you in everything
And I don't know how to live with that

Your name still sits inside my phone
I never call, but I can't delete it
Funny how someone can be gone
And still be everywhere you look

Pre-Chorus
I wish I could turn back the time
Before goodbye became my goodbye

Chorus
I miss you in the middle of the night
When nobody's here to see me cry
I hold my pillow like it's you
But it never holds me like you used to

I keep talking to a photograph
Knowing you will never answer back
If loving you is all I have left
Then I'll love you till there's nothing left

Bridge
Maybe somewhere you're still listening
Maybe you can hear me whispering
I wish I'd said “I love you” more
I wish I'd held you at that door

Because I didn't know that day
Would be the last time you'd walk away
Now every goodbye feels like a scar
And I still look for you in every car

Final Chorus
I miss you in the middle of the night
And I don't think I'll ever be alright
The world keeps moving like you're not gone
But mine stopped turning when you moved on

So I'll keep your memory close to me
Even when it hurts to breathe
And if there's a place where lost hearts meet
I hope someday you'll wait for me

Outro
Until then, I'll leave the light on by the door...
Just in case I need to dream
That you're coming home.
