[Verse 1]
You left your Bible on the table
Coffee ring on chapter two
Said you’d be gone “just for a minute”
But the screen door slammed like the truth
Dust in the driveway hangin'
Taillights bleeding through the rain
Every little thing you weren’t sayin'
Cut louder than your hurricane
[Chorus]
Whispers and warning
You were already gone that morning
Every quiet word you never said
Banged like thunder in my head
All those sideways glances forming
Storm clouds I kept ignoring
Now I’m drowning in the silence you left pouring
Whispers and warning
[Verse 2]
Your jacket’s on the kitchen chair
Sleeves still rolled from yesterday
I chase your shadow down the hallway
But your picture looks the other way
Your perfume in the dresser drawer
That song still on the radio
Every soft goodbye I didn’t hear
Is echoing
Telling me so
[Chorus]
Whispers and warning
You were already gone that morning
Every quiet word you never said
Banged like thunder in my head
All those sideways glances forming
Storm clouds I kept ignoring
Now I’m drowning in the silence you left pouring
Whispers and warning
[Bridge]
I should’ve read the writing
On your trembling hands
I treated every tear
Like it was just a passing chance
You were begging me to listen
In the calm before the fall
Now your absence is the loudest
Loudest thing of all (oh)
[Chorus]
Whispers and warning
You were already gone that morning
Every quiet word you never said
Still bangs like thunder in my head
All those sideways glances forming
Storm clouds I kept ignoring
Now I’m praying for a sound to break this mourning
Whispers and warning
