Morning coffee's getting cold again
Pictures on the wall
they still remain
Your favorite mug sits collecting dust
Since that day
nothing feels the same
I keep your sweater in the closet door
Though spring has come
I can't pack it away
Everyone says I should move along
But they don't see me late at night
awake
I smile through the day
Tell them I'm okay
But when the world goes quiet
That's when memories play
Empty spaces in this crowded room
Shadows dance where you used to move
I'm trying hard to be so strong
But missing you still feels so wrong
They say time heals every wound
But mine keeps bleeding for you
Empty spaces
that's all I see
Since you left this world without me
Friends invite me out, I say I'm fine
Netflix shows just pass the time
Your number's still on speed dial
Sometimes I call just to hear the line
Work keeps me busy through the day
Pretending that I've found my way
But traffic lights and sunset skies
Still remind me of your goodbye
I smile through the day
Tell them I'm okay
But when the world goes quiet
That's when memories play
Empty spaces in this crowded room
Shadows dance where you used to move
I'm trying hard to be so strong
But missing you still feels so wrong
They say time heals every wound
But mine keeps bleeding for you
Empty spaces
that's all I see
Since you left this world without me
I know you'd want me to be happy
To live the life we planned to share
But happiness feels like a stranger
In this house that's full of air
I'm learning how to live without you
One breath
one step at a time
They say I'm doing better
But they don't see these tears at night
Empty spaces in this crowded room
Shadows dance where you used to move
I'm trying hard to be so strong
But missing you still feels so wrong
They say time heals every wound
But mine keeps bleeding for you
Empty spaces
that's all I see
But I'll keep living, just watch me
Morning coffee's getting cold again
But today
I might make it through
These empty spaces teaching me
How to live with missing you
