[Verse 1]
You left your mug beside the sink again
A little ring of coffee on the white
I read your message, then I read it twice
Still didn't know what answer felt right
[Pre-Chorus]
We were good at making room for everything
Except the things we couldn't say
[Chorus]
I don't need a perfect ending
I just need to know you cared
If we're letting go this gently
Why does it still feel unfair?
I can carry what was honest
I can miss you and move on
But tonight I'm standing in the kitchen
Trying to make sense of us gone
[Verse 2]
Your jacket's hanging by the bedroom door
I keep forgetting it is not your place
The hallway light comes on at half past six
And for a moment, I expect your face
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe healing isn't magic
Maybe it's a quieter kind of brave
[Chorus]
I don't need a perfect ending
I just need to know you cared
If we're letting go this gently
Why does it still feel unfair?
I can carry what was honest
I can miss you and move on
But tonight I'm standing in the kitchen
Trying to make sense of us gone
[Bridge]
Tomorrow I'll return your jacket
Put the coffee cup away
Not because the love was nothing
Just because I need some space
[Final Chorus]
I don't need a perfect ending
I can leave the question there
If we're letting go this gently
I can learn to breathe somewhere
I can carry what was honest
I can miss you and move on
And tonight I'm standing in the kitchen
Finally letting morning come
[Outro]
Finally letting morning come
