[Verse 1] I wake to silence where your laughter used to be The coffee's cold, your side of the bed's still warm to me I reach for you without thinking twice But all I hold is the echo of a life [Pre-Chorus] You were my compass, my reason, my light Now I’m just stumbling blind through the night [Chorus] How am I supposed to breathe, when every breath hurts like hell? How am I supposed to live, when you're the only life I ever felt? You were my always, you still are somehow But you're gone, and I can't face the now So tell me, love… How am I supposed to live without you now? [Verse 2] Our pictures stare at me like ghosts on the wall They don’t speak, but they say it all Every plan, every dream we wrote in ink Feels like it's fading faster than I can think [Pre-Chorus] I still wear the ring, still whisper your name But nothing I do brings you back again [Chorus] How am I supposed to breathe, when every breath cuts me deep? How am I supposed to sleep, when you're the only peace I used to keep? You were my future, you're still in my vows But the world keeps turning without you now So tell me, love… How am I supposed to live without you now? [Bridge] I don't want another heart Don't want another day If you're not in it, what’s the point anyway? You were my forever Still are, somehow Even if forever’s behind me now [Final Chorus] How am I supposed to breathe, when my soul won’t let you go? How am I supposed to love, when I gave it all to you, don’t you know? You were my once, my always, my vow And even if you're gone, I still live in that somehow But tell me, love… How am I supposed to live without you now?
