[Verse 1] The leaves are turning On the mountain side Firery colors Of reds and orange [pause] The air is cooler now The days shorter The sun still sets Like it always did When you were here [Verse 2] Got the hay in today Paid the bills Dog got stuck with Some porcupine quills [pause] The sun still sets Like it always did When you were here [pause] [Pre-Chorus] Silence in the house Where there once was laughter Shouting [pause] Just the sound of talking [Chorus] It’s never been the same Since you went away Now it’s quiet So quiet [pause] Can’t hardly stand To go home anymore [pause] It’s never been the same Since you went away [Verse 3] Used to think you talked to loud Banged pans Slammed doors Shouting [pause] Just the sound of talking Now it’s quiet So quiet The air is cooler now The days shorter [pause] [Pre-Chorus] You don’t answer my calls Or respond to my texts It’s so unbelievably hard [pause] Are you ever coming back? Is this over? Do I even want to know? [pause] [Chorus] It’s never been the same Since you went away Now it’s quiet So quiet [pause] Can’t hardly stand To go home anymore It’s never been the same Since you went away [pause] [Bridge] If you come back You can slam any door Shout all you want Sing at the top of your lungs [pause] If you come back You can slam any door Shout all you want Sing at the top of your lungs [Final Chorus] You don’t a answer my calls Or respond to my texts It’s so unbelievably hard [pause] Are you ever coming back? Is this over? Do I even want to know? [pause] The leaves are turning On the mountain side Firery colors Of reds and orange The sun still sets Like it always did When you were here [pause] If you come back You can slam any door Shout all you want Sing at the top of your lungs [pause] [slow down very thoughtful] And it will be Ok with me
