[Verse 1]
I had your ringtone on the loudest
Never dared to miss that call
Now the nights are cruel and crowded
But this house don’t ring at all
Now it’s silent in the kitchen
Just the ticking of the wall
I keep staring at your picture
Like it might still start to talk
[Chorus]
I had your ringtone on the loudest
Never thought it’d fade at all
Now it’s quiet, and I’m counting
Every ghost that walks these halls
Memories light up the room
When I strike these candles tall
We played lover’s maze in the dark
Now I’m lost, no map, no call
[Verse 2]
Ashtray full of almost midnights
Every “come home safe” you said
I still sleep on just one pillow
Leave your side cold in the bed
In the mirror, I see shadows
Of the way you used to gaze
Every hallway feels like branches
Every doorway, lover’s maze
[Chorus]
I had your ringtone on the loudest
Never thought it’d fade at all
Now it’s quiet, and I’m counting
Every ghost that walks these halls
Memories light up the room
When I strike these candles tall
We played lover’s maze in the dark
Now I’m lost, no map, no call
[Bridge]
[Soft fiddle and pedal steel swell under vocal]
If I could let it ring again (oh darling)
I’d crawl through every twist and wall
But the signal’s gone to heaven
And I’m still here, missing the call
[Chorus]
I had your ringtone on the loudest
Never thought it’d fade at all
Now it’s quiet, and I’m counting
Every ghost that walks these halls
Memories light up the room
When I strike these candles tall
We played lover’s maze together
Now I roam this maze alone… still waiting for your call
