Since You've Been Gone .

[Verse 1] Your blue mug's still beside the sink I reach for two, then stop and think The hallway clock keeps losing time Since your key stopped turning in mine [Pre-Chorus] I changed the sheets, I moved the chair But every room still finds you there [Chorus] Since you've been gone, the house knows every sound The floorboard by the door, the heater settling down I tell myself I'm fine, then night proves me wrong I miss who I was with you since you've been gone [Verse 2] Your winter coat is on the hook I leave it there, though no one looks The grocery list in your old hand Still says, “buy peaches if you can” [Pre-Chorus] I take the long way home each night Past the corner where we said goodbye [Chorus] Since you've been gone, the house knows every sound The floorboard by the door, the heater settling down I tell myself I'm fine, then night proves me wrong I miss who I was with you since you've been gone [Bridge] Maybe some morning I'll wake up And your name won't catch inside my throat But for now I leave the porch light on Like a promise neither of us wrote [Final Chorus] Since you've been gone, the silence has a song It follows me through breakfast, waits beside me till dawn I tell myself I'm fine, but I know where I belong With the part of me you carried since you've been gone [Outro] Since you've been gone I’m still learning how to carry on
