[Verse 1]
Coffee’s gettin’ cold on your side of the table
Your chair’s still pulled out like you just stood up to leave
Your picture in the hallway keeps starin’ like it’s able
To drag me right back to the man I used to be
[Chorus]
It’s hard to let you go
When I still feel you breathing
I still see you dancing
In a dress that ain’t for me
You broke what we had
But I’m the one here bleeding
Longing for a love
That was never what it seemed
It’s hard to let you go
When I’m holding on to dreams
[Verse 2]
I remember that first night you fell asleep on my shoulder
Thought I’d found forever in the way you said my name
Now I’m tracing empty spaces where your promises got colder
Counting all the nights you never came
[Chorus]
It’s hard to let you go
When I still feel you breathing
I still see you dancing
In a dress that ain’t for me
You broke what we had
But I’m the one here bleeding
Longing for a love
That was never what it seemed
It’s hard to let you go
When I’m holding on to dreams
[Bridge]
I could hate you, I could blame you
But that won’t turn back time (oh no)
So I’ll fold up every memory
Like an old shirt left behind
[Chorus]
It’s hard to let you go
When I still feel you breathing
I still see you dancing
Where my arms used to be
You broke what we had
But I’m the one here bleeding
Longing for a love
That finally set me free
It’s hard to let you go
But you’re already gone from me
