The light you left behind.

I still see your shadow in the hall

Hear your laughter echo down the wall

Your coffee cup’s still by the sink

But now it’s just me and time to think

The world kept turning like it always does

But mine stopped cold the day I lost your love

I try to smile, pretend I’m fine

But I’m just chasing ghosts you left behind

You were the calm inside my storm

The safe place I would always run toward

Now I talk to stars and silent skies

Wishing I had one more night

But though you’re gone, you still shine

In the light you left behind

Your favorite song comes on the radio

And I break down somewhere no one knows

They say time heals a heart like mine

But I wear these scars like badges of time

You were the calm inside my storm

The safe place I would always run toward

Now I talk to stars and silent skies

Wishing I had one more night

But though you’re gone, you still shine

In the light you left behind

I see you in the sunrise, in the way the willow sways

You’re with me in the quiet, in a thousand little ways

I’ll carry you through every mile

Until I see your face again and smile

You were the calm inside my storm

The safe place I would always run toward

Now I talk to stars and silent skies

Wishing I had one more night

But though you’re gone, you still shine

In the light you left behind
