[Verse 1] You're gone now, And for a little while, so is the pain. I can finally get through the morning Without falling apart at your name. But nighttime still remembers you, When the whole world goes quiet. I stare at my ceiling in the dark, Wishing I could somehow rewind it. I still hear your voice in my head, Still know the way you used to laugh. Everybody tells me I'll get over you, But nobody knows what we had. [Pre-Chorus] They didn't see the little moments, The ones I'll never get back. They only see that you're gone now— They don't understand why I'm still sad. [Chorus] 'Cause youuuuu... You were more than just somebody I loved. You were the person I ran to When everything got too much. And when I cry, nobody understands Why I still miss you this bad. They tell me, “You're better without him,” But they never knew what we had. You're gone now, And maybe someday I'll be okay... But the hardest part isn't losing you— It's learning how to live When you're not here every day. [Verse 2] I still catch myself reaching for my phone, Wanting to tell you about my day. Then I remember we're strangers now, And slowly put the phone away. I still remember your arms around me, The warmth of your chest against mine. The way you could make everything disappear For just a little bit of time. And I hate that life keeps moving Like nothing ever happened between us. How can something mean everything to me And mean so little to everyone else? [Bridge] Maybe someday I'll stop crying When somebody says your name. Maybe I'll hear our favorite song And it won't feel quite the same. But right now, I miss you In places nobody can see. And I wish I could explain to them What you really meant to me. Because they didn't hear your “I love you.” They didn't feel the way you held me. They weren't there when I needed you. They weren't there when you saved me. They only see the ending... They never saw the story. [Final Chorus] Youuuuu... You're gone now, and so is some of the pain, But I'd give anything to have One more night with you again. One more “I love you,” One more kiss before goodbye, One more moment where I could pretend You'd never leave my side. And when I cry, nobody understands Why losing you still hurts this bad. They can tell me I'll find somebody else, But they'll never know... They'll never know what we had. [Outro] You're gone now... And I'm still here. Trying to learn how to breathe In a world that doesn't have you. And maybe that's the hardest part... You got to leave me behind, but I still wake up every day in the world where I thought you'd stay.
