Verse 1:
The coffee’s cold, just like yesterday
The streets are full, but feel the same
Mondays still arrive like they always do
And I... keep pretending I’m not missing you
Laughter comes back now and then
And sunlight slips through my window again
But there’s a place it never finds
Where your absence holds the lines
Chorus:
Life goes on, the world keeps turning
But you're not here
And no matter how it moves
It can’t make you reappear
They say that time will heal
But that’s never been true
It just teaches me to walk
With the space once filled by you
Verse 2:
Sometimes I swear I see your face
In a stranger passing by my way
And for a second, I forget
That you're not coming back again
Your things are right where they used to be
Though seasons changed and carried me
And though it looks like I’ve moved on
The truth is, I’ve just learned to play along
Chorus:
Life goes on, the world keeps turning
But you're not here
And no matter how it moves
It can’t make you reappear
They say that time will heal
But that’s never been true
It just teaches me to walk
With the space once filled by you
Bridge:
Some nights I still dream of you
So real it breaks me in two
I wake up with this heavy chest
Full of pieces and regrets
Maybe if you never left
Maybe if this was just a dream
But there’s no warning, no return
Just this life… without you in between
Final Chorus:
Life goes on, the world keeps changing
But you're not here
And even if I learn to smile
I still ache to hear you near
They say that time will heal
But time just taught me how
To stand here with a heart…
That learned to say goodbye somehow
Outro (a cappella):
Life goes on, life goes on...
But you're not here.
