I still see your face in the rearview light
Like a ghost I never asked to haunt my life
Every song on the radio knows your name
And it cuts like the wind through this pouring rain
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to move on, I swear I did
But the silence echoes louder than it ever did
I keep reaching for a hand that’s not there
Loving someone who’s gone ain’t fair
[Chorus]
We were fire, we were gold
Now I’m standing in the ashes cold
You’re a memory I can't outrun
Like the setting of my favorite sun
Tell me how do I breathe when it’s not your touch?
How do I love when it’s not with us?
This emptiness hurts way too much
For what used to be love…
What used to be us
[Verse 2]
I still wear the hoodie you left behind
It don’t fit right, but it holds the time
And your perfume’s fading from my sheets
But your goodbye still plays on repeat
[Pre-Chorus]
I smile in the mirror, pretend I’m okay
But my heart’s got a thousand things it wants to say
Like how you’re still in every dream I dream
Even if you’re not with me
[Chorus]
We were fire, we were gold
Now I’m standing in the ashes cold
You’re a memory I can't outrun
Like the setting of my favorite sun
Tell me how do I breathe when it’s not your touch?
How do I love when it’s not with us?
This emptiness hurts way too much
For what used to be love…
What used to be us
[Bridge]
If you ever feel alone at 2 a.m.
And you wonder who still cares, I still am
You might’ve moved on, maybe that’s right
But I’m still stuck in our last night
[Final Chorus]
We were fire, we were gold
Now I’m standing in the ashes cold
You’re a memory I can't outrun
Like the setting of my favorite sun
Tell me how do I breathe when it’s not your touch?
How do I love when it’s not with us?
This emptiness hurts way too much
For what used to be love…
What used to be us
