(Verse 1) I told the sky, You’d come through. Watched the clouds, Waited for you. Streetlight flicker, Empty stair— Everywhere I looked, You weren’t there. ♪ (Chorus) You weren’t there, But I still dressed like you would be. You weren’t there, But I kept one seat free. You weren’t there, But I felt you in the air— And maybe that hurts More than if you cared. ♪ (Verse 2) I played our song, But let it die. Didn’t cry, But I won’t lie. You made a ghost Out of my stare— Left a silence I still wear. ♪ (Chorus) You weren’t there, But I still dressed like you would be. You weren’t there, But I kept one seat free. You weren’t there, But I felt you in the air— And maybe that hurts More than if you cared. ♪ (Bridge) No message, No reason why, Just a slow fade In the sky. ♪ (Final Chorus) You weren’t there, And I stopped asking when. You weren’t there, But I still pretend. You weren’t there— But I swear, It’s worse than goodbye When you’re not anywhere. ♪ ♪ ♪
