[Verse 1] I stay on my side of the bed, like you’re still here . The left half untouched, your outline is clear In my sleep, I reach, but my hand just falls To the coldest place where you’re not at all [Chorus] Your side of the bed stays empty tonight But I keep forgetting it’s out of my right I still leave the space where you used to exist A void too heavy for me to resist [Verse 2] The sheets don’t wrinkle; they stay so tight Like they’re holding their breath, just like I might Every time I turn, I feel the weight Of all the small ways you’re still in this place [Chorus] Your side of the bed stays empty tonight But I keep forgetting it’s out of my right I still leave the space where you used to exist An emptiness too heavy for me to resist [Bridge] I don’t lie awake, I still fall asleep But it isn’t rest; it’s something too deep I don’t move across, I’m too used to my side It’s the one thing I can’t seem to leave behind [Final Chorus] Your side of the bed stays empty tonight But I keep forgetting it’s out of my right I still leave the space where you used to exist A sadness too heavy for me to resist
