Without You [Intro] Yeah I tried to picture it Life without you And I couldn’t breathe right Listen [Verse 1] If I woke up and you weren’t there I don’t think the morning would know what to do Sunlight through the window But it wouldn’t feel like it made it through Coffee on the counter But nobody saying, “Don’t forget” Silence in the hallway Where your laugh ain’t living yet I could put my shoes on I could walk outside and fake a smile Tell the world I’m doing fine Like I ain’t been hollowed out a while But every road would look different Every song would hit wrong Every place that used to feel like home Would just be somewhere I don’t belong [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been broken before I know how lonely sounds But without you in this life I don’t know if I’d be found [Chorus] Without you I’m just breathing through the pain Just a man inside a house That don’t answer to my name Without you Every color turns to gray Every prayer feels like an echo Every night forgets the day I don’t want to know who I’d be If I had to make it through A world that kept on turning Without you [Verse 2] I know people say you’d learn to live Like grief is something time can train Like missing someone slowly fades Like love don’t leave a permanent stain But they don’t know the way you hold me When my head gets too loud They don’t know you pull me back When I start disappearing in the crowd They don’t know the things you saved Without even trying to How many times I almost broke And made it home because of you You’re not just someone that I love You’re the place my heart can rest You’re the hand across the darkness When I’m fighting with my chest [Pre-Chorus] I’ve had nights I didn’t want tomorrow Days I barely made it through But I kept reaching for the light Cause the light looked just like you [Chorus] Without you I’m just breathing through the pain Just a man inside a house That don’t answer to my name Without you Every color turns to gray Every prayer feels like an echo Every night forgets the day I don’t want to know who I’d be If I had to make it through A world that kept on turning Without you [Bridge] And I ain’t saying I’m not strong I’ve survived more than I show But there’s a difference between living And just refusing to let go I could still wake up I could still move I could still say all the words People need me to But who would I be talking to When the room gets cold at night Who would know the look I get When I say that I’m alright Who would hear the tremble hiding Underneath my pride Who would love the parts of me I still don’t let outside Who would be my reason When my reasons disappear Who would make this broken life Feel worth another year [Verse 3] So I don’t take your laugh for granted I don’t waste your hand in mine I don’t want to learn the lesson Of what I had when it’s behind I want to love you while you’re breathing While your eyes can still meet mine While I still get to say “I love you” And not whisper it to time Cause without you, I’m a question With no answer coming back I’m a train with no direction I’m a heart under attack And if God lets me keep you I swear I’ll spend my days Making sure you never wonder What you mean to me again [Final Chorus] Without you I’m just breathing through the pain Just a man inside a house That don’t answer to my name Without you Every color turns to gray Every prayer feels like an echo Every night forgets the day I don’t want to know who I’d be If I had to make it through A world that kept on turning Without you Without you I lose more than love I lose the part of me That still believes I’m enough Then I look across the room And there you are, still true Thank God I don’t have to live Without you [Outro] Yeah I tried to picture it Life without you But you’re still here Still breathing Still reaching for my hand And I don’t feel scared now I feel lucky Because the world kept turning And so did you Right here beside me
