[Verse 1]
Coffee cup
At your old place at the table
I still talk
Like somehow you’re gonna answer
Sunday phone call
Silence on the other end
I hang on
To things I can’t defend
[Chorus]
I just want one more day with you, mama
One more porch swing, one more drive back home
One more “boy, you know I love you”
Before I’m standing here alone
Every day I try to move on
Every day it feels untrue
’Cause every day I’m waking up
To a world that’s lost its you
[Verse 2]
Folded clothes
In the drawer where you once kept them
Your perfume
Still hiding in the hall
People say
“It gets easier, just be patient”
But they don’t see
How hard I hit that wall
[Chorus]
I just want one more day with you, mama
One more late-night talk in that old chair
One more “son, it’s gonna be alright”
Fingers running through my hair
Every day I try to move on
Every day I come unglued
’Cause every day I’m breathing in
A life that’s missing you
[Bridge]
I’d trade all these worn-out tomorrows
For five more borrowed minutes in your arms (oh mama)
To hear you laugh at all my sorrows
Tell me you’re proud
Tell me I’ve come far
[Chorus]
I just want one more day with you, mama
One more chance to say the things I should
One more hug that lasts forever
One more moment understood
Every day I try to move on
Every day I walk on through
But every day my broken heart
Finds its way back home to you
