[Verse 1]
We painted dates on coffee cups
Left our socks in each other’s drawers
You know every crack in my armor
Every creak in my floor
You’re folding shirts into boxes
Like it’s trash day for my heart
You say “we’ve been over this”
But we barely even start
[Chorus]
Don’t throw this away
Don’t turn our whole life into yesterday
All of our photos on the hallway wall
You can’t call that nothing at all
Don’t slam that door
Don’t say you’re already out of words
If you feel anything when you hear my name
Please
Don’t throw this away
[Verse 2]
You trace the dent in that old couch
From the night we stayed up till three
You laugh once
Then you look down
Say
“this isn’t working for me”
If it’s broken
I can fix it
If you’re tired
I can change
Don’t erase our stupid inside jokes
Like they were written in the rain
[Chorus]
Don’t throw this away
Don’t turn our whole life into yesterday
All of our photos on the hallway wall
You can’t call that nothing at all
Don’t slam that door
Don’t say you’re already out of words
If you feel anything when you hear my name
Please
Don’t throw this away
[Bridge]
I’ll sit in the dark
I’ll wait in the quiet
I’ll listen to every hurt you hide
If this is goodbye
At least let me fight it
Don’t end us on a careless line
[Chorus]
Don’t throw this away
Don’t turn our whole life into yesterday
All of our photos on the hallway wall
You can’t call that nothing at all
Don’t slam that door
Don’t say you’re already out of words
If you feel anything when you hear my name
Please
Don’t throw this away
