(Verse 1) I used to think it was your face I’d miss Or the quiet moments right before a kiss I thought the pain was tied to who you were Now the blur is starting to clear And the silence isn't quite as heavy here (Chorus) I finally see why letting go felt impossible to do I wasn't just saying goodbye to you I was saying goodbye to every single plan Every expectation, every place we’d stand Every version of tomorrow where you held my hand Yeah, the future I imagined… Is the hardest thing to leave behind (Verse 2) There’s a ghost of a house we never bought A thousand conversations that we never fought Saturdays that won't ever happen now I had to untangle my mind somehow From a life that only existed in my head (Chorus) I finally see why letting go felt impossible to do I wasn't just saying goodbye to you I was saying goodbye to every single plan Every expectation, every place we’d stand Every version of tomorrow where you held my hand Yeah, the future you imagined… Is the hardest thing to leave behind (Bridge) It’s mourning someone who was never really there It’s packing up a room built out of thin air You can replace a memory with time But how do you erase what was only in your mind? (Guitar Solo / Interlude) (Chorus) I finally see why letting go felt impossible to do I wasn't just saying goodbye to you I was saying goodbye to every single plan Every expectation, every place we’d stand Every version of tomorrow where you held my hand Yeah, the future you imagined… Is the hardest thing to leave behind (Outro) Every version of tomorrow… Swept away like sand Hardest thing to leave behind Leaving it behind (Fade out)
