Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I could say I hate you
Swear that I’m just fine
Tell my friends I’m over
Every late-night line
I could burn your pictures
Box up what we had
Act like walking out the door
Didn’t hurt this bad
[Chorus]
But it would be a lie
Every word, every alibi
You were my sunrise, my steady on a stormy road
You were the one thing I thought I’d always hold
I could say I’m done, say I’m finally free
But you meant everything to me
Yeah, you meant everything
That’s more than goodbye could ever be
[Verse 2]
I could talk like you’re a lesson
Just a chapter I outgrew
Raise a glass and toast to
Finding someone new
But these worn-out blue jeans
Still smell like your perfume
And there’s a quiet in this house
That only fits your shoes
[Chorus]
But it would be a lie
Every word, every alibi
You were my sunrise, my steady on a stormy road
You were the one thing I thought I’d always hold
I could say I’m done, say I’m finally free
But you meant everything to me
Yeah, you meant everything
That’s more than goodbye could ever be
[Bridge]
Maybe time will dull the edges (oh yeah)
Maybe I’ll learn how to breathe
But I can’t rewrite our story
Just to make it easier to leave
[Chorus]
’Cause it would be a lie
Every word, every alibi
You were my sunrise, my steady on a stormy road
You were the one thing I thought I’d always hold
I could say I’m done, say I’m finally free
But you meant everything to me
You still mean everything
And that’s more than goodbye could ever be
