[Verse 1]

I left the light on in the hallway
Like some part of me thought you’d come home
The quiet’s been talking too loudly
Since I learned how to sleep here alone

[Chorus]

I still look for you
In the morning air
Every road I take
Leads me there

I still reach for you
On your empty side
Trying to let you go

[Verse 2]

I kept your picture on the dresser
Like some part of me still needs to know
The mornings have been moving slower
Since I learned how to wake up alone

[Chorus]

I still look for you
In the morning air
Every road I take
Leads me there

I still reach for you
On your empty side
Trying to let you go

[Verse 1 Reprise / Breakdown]

I left the light on in the hallway
Like some part of me thought you’d come home
The quiet’s been talking too loudly
Since I learned how to sleep here alone
