[Verse 1] Your coat’s on the chair Boots by the door You left in a hurry But it still feels like war Half of your coffee Still cold in the sink I stare at that cup More than I drink [Pre-Chorus] I said I’m fine But my hands still shake I rewind that night Like a worn-out tape [Chorus] I love you, baby Even when it hurts like this Voice all cracked and shaking Begging shadows for your kiss If you don’t come back I’ll learn to stand up anyway But I love you, baby More than my pride today [Verse 2] Your playlist keeps playing On my old dashboard I drive past your exit Talking alone to the Lord Friends say I’m stubborn Say I should let go But they never held you On a night full of snow [Pre-Chorus] You needed space I needed proof Now all that we built Is hanging on truth [Chorus] I love you, baby Even when it hurts like this Name burned in my breathing Every word a broken wish If you don’t come back I’ll learn to stand up anyway But I love you, baby More than my pride today [Bridge] (Female) I won’t chase your taillights down that road again (Male) I won’t drown this feeling, I’ll just let it mend (Together) If we meet next summer at that county fair Will we nod like strangers Or say we still care? [Chorus] I love you, baby Even if we walk away I’ll fold up our picture Put it in a safer place If you don’t come back I’ll still find my own way But I love you, baby God, I love you, baby More than my pride today
