Love long gone

(Verse 1)

It’s 2 AM and you’re not home,

Your side of the bed feels cold.

Another night, no alibi,

Just empty silence and blurry lies.

I tell myself it’s all in my head,

But your perfume smells of someone else instead.

I know the truth, but I close my eyes,

’Cause I can’t bear another goodbye.

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m breaking slowly, but I can’t let go,

Loving you is all I’ve ever known.

(Chorus)

I’m screaming your name in an empty room,

Loving a ghost while you chase the moon.

I know the truth, it cuts me in two,

But my heart won’t stop, it belongs to you.

Shattered and bleeding, I beg you to stay,

Praying tomorrow will bring you my way.

I should let go, but I just hold on,

To a love that’s fading, to a love long gone.

(Verse 2)

Your phone face down, you turn away,

You say you’re “working,” I know that play.

Lipstick stains you can’t explain,

But I’d rather hurt than feel the pain of change.

I beg for scraps of what we had,

Holding on to the good and ignoring the bad.

You’re killing me with every kiss,

But losing you would hurt worse than this.

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m breaking slowly, but I can’t let go,

Loving you is all I’ve ever known.

(Chorus)

I’m screaming your name in an empty room,

Loving a ghost while you chase the moon.

I know the truth, it cuts me in two,

But my heart won’t stop, it belongs to you.

Shattered and bleeding, I beg you to stay,

Praying tomorrow will bring you my way.

I should let go, but I just hold on,

To a love that’s fading, to a love long gone.

(Bridge)

How do you sleep when I’m awake?

How do you smile while my heart breaks?

I know I should run, but I’m still here,

Praying for a love that disappeared.

(Chorus)

I’m screaming your name in an empty room,

Loving a ghost while you chase the moon.

I know the truth, it cuts me in two,

But my heart won’t stop, it belongs to you.

Shattered and bleeding, I beg you to stay,

Praying tomorrow will bring you my way.

I should let go, but I just hold on,

To a love that’s fading, to a love long gone.

I’m screaming your name in an empty room,

Loving a ghost while you chase the moon.

I know the truth, it cuts me in two,

But my heart won’t stop, it belongs to you.

Shattered and bleeding, I beg you to stay,

Praying tomorrow will bring you my way.

I should let go, but I just hold on,

To a love that’s fading, to a love long gone.

It’s 2 AM and you’re not home…

And I still wait, I still wait alone.
