Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They all said that we'd have ups and downs
Talked big about the work and the vows
But nobody mentioned cardboard boxes
Or splitting up the pictures and the couch
Mama warned me love can come and go
Daddy said "son, that's just how it goes"
They told me how to walk away in theory
But not how to leave when your heart stays home
[Chorus]
No one can ever prepare you for a broken heart
They teach you how to start, not how to fall apart
They tell you love moves on, like it's something you just do
But no one ever shows you how to stop loving you
How to stop loving you
[Verse 2]
Our friends all say I'm gonna be just fine
"Give it time, you'll find another life"
But they ain't ever driven past your driveway
Hands shaking on the wheel at 9 and 5
I can throw away your t-shirts and your notes
Delete your name from this old phone
But there ain't any book or midnight sermon
Telling me how to turn this feeling off
[Chorus]
No one can ever prepare you for a broken heart
They teach you how to start, not how to fall apart
They tell you love moves on, like it's something you just do
But no one ever shows you how to stop loving you
How to stop loving you
[Bridge]
If there was a switch, Lord, I'd flip it
If there was a map, I'd follow it through
If there was a prayer that erased every memory
I'd be on my knees till the pews wore through (yeah)
[Chorus]
No one can ever prepare you for a broken heart
They teach you how to start, not how to fall apart
They tell you love moves on, like it's something you just do
But no one ever shows you how to stop loving you
How to stop loving you
[Outro]
They all talk about the letting go
Guess I'm proof some of us never do
'Cause no one ever showed me
How to stop loving you

country, Modern country ballad with male vocals; intimate acoustic guitar and soft piano leading verses, brushed kit and warm pedal steel swelling into a big, tear-jerker chorus, subtle fiddle fills and stacked harmonies on the hook, dynamics rising on each chorus then dropping to a bare, vulnerable outro
