[Verse 1]
I’m laying right next to you
But I can’t see your face
It feels like you’re looking right through me
Like your love’s turned to hate
I can smell you on my pillow
The perfume I can taste
It lingers like a memory
I can never shake
[Chorus]
Life passed us by
In the blink of an eye
Did you say goodbye
Right before you left?
Is it in the note you wrote
Still unopened on the chest?
What about the love we made?
Guess it wasn’t built to last
Keep living on memories
Stuck in the past
[Verse 2]
Your favorite cone was bubblegum
It always left a smile on your face
Unlike my convertible
Hair blowing in your face
What about all of the promises
The promises we made?
They don’t mean a thing now
Why can’t I just turn the page?
[Chorus]
Life passed us by
In the blink of an eye
Did you say goodbye
Right before you left?
Is it in the note you wrote
Still unopened on the chest?
What about the love we made?
Guess it wasn’t built to last
Keep living on memories
Stuck in the past
[Bridge]
Would you just look at me
The shell of a broken man
So weak in the knees
I can hardly stand
Your makeup on the counter
Your portrait on the wall
I let go of some of it
But I can’t let go of it all
[Final Chorus]
Life passed us by
In the blink of an eye
Did you say goodbye
Right before you left?
Is it in the note you wrote
Still unopened on the chest?
What about the love we made?
Guess it wasn’t built to last
Keep living on memories
Stuck in the past
[Outro]
I can smell you on my pillow
The perfume I can taste
It lingers like a memory
I can never shake
I can never shake
I can never shake
