Morning came, and she was gone
She was in pain for way too long
You keep reaching without thinking
For the life that filled the room
Funny how the smallest heartbeats
Leave the biggest kind of wounds
I know why she would lay on your chest
’Cause she knew your love was true
You said you hate how life goes on after
Like the world just turns on you
You don’t have to say a word
If you need me, I’m here too
I’m always just one call away
You said you hate how life goes on after…
I think that’s where love stays
It lives on inside you
In all the quiet ways
God teaches us strength
In mysterious ways
I hope it fades with time
I hope love finds its way
I hope next time you feel it
God lets it stay
You been carrying more than memories
You been carrying all the weight
Of the things you couldn’t change
Still you hold on anyway
I know some nights still get heavy
With the voice you couldn’t save
It still echoes in the silence
Like it never went away
You did everything you could
Some endings don’t ask permission
Even when you know they should
You said you hate how life goes on after…
I think that’s where love stays
It lives on inside you
It never fades away
I hope it doesn’t hurt too much
I hope the memories stay
Right there on your chest…
Where she used to lay
And maybe when it hits you
In the middle of your day
It feels a little more like love…
And less like pain
I hope it doesn’t hurt too much…
I hope the memories stay…
Right there on your chest…
Where she used to lay…
Right there on your chest…
that’s where love stays.
