[Verse 1] I stood a while out on the driveway With the engine ticking slow Your porch light burned behind the curtain Like it didn't want to know I could hear the town still moving I could hear a dog somewhere But the world went strange and empty In the cold out there [Pre-Chorus] Some things don't break like thunder They break quiet, one inch at a time [Chorus] After the door closed After the last light I stood there staring Into the night No big words spoken No big scene Just me and the silence Where you used to be [Verse 2] I drove a mile without a reason Pulled over by the railroad tracks Watched the red lights in the distance Fade and never look back I thought I'd feel some kind of anger Something sharp enough to hold But all I had was that empty feeling After the door closed [Pre-Chorus] Some things don't leave in a moment They stay hanging in the air you breathe [Chorus] After the door closed After the last light I stood there staring Into the night No big words spoken No big scene Just me and the silence Where you used to be [Bridge] I always thought there'd be a next time One more chance to get it right But the dark don't wait for ready And love don't wait all night [Final Chorus] After the door closed After the last light I stood there staring Into the night No big words spoken No big scene Just me and the silence Where you used to be
