[Verse 1] I kept your sweater by the door Like it might bring you back once more Your coffee ring still stains the wood Same little mess that felt so good You left your keys on my old tray I move them twice and look away The house is loud in all the wrong ways Since you were here, since you were here [Pre-Chorus] And I say I'm fine But I don't mean it I tell myself I'll get through it Then your name Turns up in my chest And I'm right back To that one last text [Chorus] I'm falling, falling Back into your hands I'm falling, falling Even when I stand You were the tide I was the sand I'm falling, falling Don't know how to land (falling, falling) (falling, falling) [Verse 2] I saw your car at the red light For one small second, I got light Then it was gone down 8th and Pine And I was left with borrowed time My friends all say "just let it go" Like letting go is something I know But every corner still holds your name And every quiet feels the same [Pre-Chorus] And I try to breathe Like it won't kill me I close my eyes Still I can see How you smiled Like you knew me best Now I'm back there With my hand on my chest [Chorus] I'm falling, falling Back into your hands I'm falling, falling Even when I stand You were the tide I was the sand I'm falling, falling Don't know how to land (falling, falling) (falling, falling) [Bridge] If you called tonight I might not be strong I still keep our song On and on and on I hate that I Still want the pain Still say your name Like a prayer in rain [Final Chorus] I'm falling, falling Back into your hands I'm falling, falling Even when I stand You were the tide I was the sand I'm falling, falling Don't know how to land I'm falling, falling And I hate that it's true I'm falling, falling Still reaching for you You were the tide I was the sand I'm falling, falling Don't know how to land
