[Verse 1] I kept your coat on the back of the chair Though you were a maybe, a room full of air Old almost-loves with their hands on the gate I thank you for leaving; I’m done being late [Pre-Chorus] You can’t walk beside me If I keep you in chains I can miss what we might’ve been And still turn the page [Chorus] Goodbye, goodbye, dear ghosts of mine You were a season, not a sign I bless the roads we didn’t choose I’m learning how to be my own home Goodbye, goodbye, I’m letting go The path is mine; I’ll take it slow [Verse 2] To the love I never had time to begin I’m sorry I made you a place to live in No debt to repay, no door left ajar I can carry the lesson, not carry the scar [Bridge] My own name sounds kinder tonight I don’t need your shadow to know I’m alive [Final Chorus] Goodbye, goodbye, dear ghosts of mine You were a season, not a sign I bless the roads we didn’t choose I’m learning how to be my own home [Outro] My own home I’m walking on
