[Verse 1]
Coffee’s getting cold on the counter
Been staring at that empty chair
Her laughter still hangs in this old house
Like she’s almost there
I replay that last December
Her tired eyes, that shaky breath
When she said she “couldn’t do this”
Felt my world just fall to shreds
[Chorus]
Since she quit loving me
I’ve been walking round a ghost in my own skin
Breathing in and out
But it don’t feel like living
I see her eyes in every crowd
Hear her smile in every song I sing
It’s hard pretending I’m okay
Since she quit loving me (oh)
Since she quit loving me
[Verse 2]
Friends keep telling me I’ll get better
“Come on out, you’ll be just fine”
But the truth is I’m just lying
Every time I say “I’m all right”
I still sleep on my side of the mattress
Leave her picture by the light
Talk to shadows in the hallway
Just to make it through the night
[Chorus]
Since she quit loving me
I’ve been walking round a ghost in my own skin
Breathing in and out
But it don’t feel like living
I see her eyes in every crowd
Hear her smile in every song I sing
It’s hard pretending I’m okay
Since she quit loving me (yeah)
Since she quit loving me
[Bridge]
One day these tears might turn to stories
I’ll laugh about what used to be (maybe)
But right now there’s a quiet in this heartbreak
That’s louder than it ought to be
[Chorus]
Since she quit loving me
I’ve been walking round a ghost in my own skin
Breathing in and out
Still don’t feel like living
I see her eyes in every crowd
Hear her smile in every song I sing
I’m so tired of saying I’m okay
Since she quit loving me (oh)
Since she quit loving me
