Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Tires spittin’ gravel

In my rearview

Your porch light fades

Coffee in a paper cup

Cold as everything we never said

Your name on the dashboard dust

I trace it once

Then wipe it clean

One lane

Broken white lines

Cut straight through what used to be

[Chorus]

There’s dust on your side of the bed

Empty pillow

Heavy as lead

All these miles

I drive in my head

Back to the night that you said

“Baby

Love don’t live here

It’s dead”

But I still set a place in my chest

Yeah

There’s dust

There’s dust on your side of the bed (oh, on your side)

[Verse 2]

Old bar off the county road

Your laugh still leans on that back booth

Jukebox sings a song you loved

I kill it quick

Can’t take the truth

Folks ask where you gone to

I just nod and sip my glass

Say you’re chasin’ some bright future

While I’m stuck here in the past

[Chorus]

There’s dust on your side of the bed

Where your Bible and your hair ties rest

I still sleep on the edge

Like I’m scared I might wake you instead

You said

“Boy

You gotta let go

Accept”

But my hands stay gripped on what’s left

Yeah

There’s dust

There’s dust on your side of the bed (mmm, on your side)

[Bridge]

[Band drops low

Organ swells]

I been drivin’ through the questions

Like mile markers in the dark

Was I too proud

Too loud

Too broken

To hold your shaking heart?

If you ever turn that handle

Find your way back through that door

You’ll see your footprints

Baby

Still waiting in my floor (yeah)

[Chorus]

There’s dust on your side of the bed

But the space in my arms stays fresh

I keep talkin’ to the air

Like you’re sittin’ there

Noddin’ your head

You said

“Love ain’t supposed to feel like dread”

So why you the ghost in my chest?

Yeah

There’s dust

There’s dust on your side of the bed

(There’s dust, there’s dust)

On your side of the bed (sing it)
