[Verse 1]
Your boots still sit by the front door,
Dusty like the day you left 'em there.
The clock on the wall don’t tick no more,
But you don’t seem to care.
You’re clinging to the ghosts of what we had,
While I’m chasing dreams you think are bad.
[Chorus]
You’re stuck in yesterday, I’m walking toward tomorrow,
You hold onto the pain, I’m letting go of sorrow.
The world keeps spinning, but you stay the same,
I’m moving forward, but you won’t change.
[Verse 2]
Your favorite song still skips on that old tape,
You play it like it’s brand new.
I’ve tried to pull you from the memories,
But they’ve wrapped their arms ‘round you.
I see the past in your faraway eyes,
While I’m searching for bluer skies.
[Prechorus]
I can’t keep standing still,
While time bends to your will.
[Chorus]
You’re stuck in yesterday, I’m walking toward tomorrow,
You hold onto the pain, I’m letting go of sorrow.
The world keeps spinning, but you stay the same,
I’m moving forward, but you won’t change.
[Bridge]
There’s a suitcase waiting by the door,
It’s not yours, but it feels like it should be.
I’ve loved you, but I can’t love the shadow
Of what we used to be.
