lyrics

Some coins on the dresser, a shoe by the door;
A note on the counter says you're not coming home.
That's all you left for me; the only things you left behind.
In your home they told you how you were scarred,
They said they'd love you, but not the way you are.
Why are you going back? That place you had to leave behind...

And oh, now the night's so long without you Oh, and the days go on without you
But sometimes, I just forget why.

They sent you to practices, you ran away.
You made for the city, and I made you feel safe.
I held you while we cried all night; so glad you made it out alive
We rented a corner loft, downtown by the park.
We never had to hide, and you let down your guard. But there were ghosts that whispered in your mind; Some things you never leave behind...

And oh, now the night's so long without you Oh, and the days go on without you
But sometimes, I just forget why.

And I wouldn't mind if you found someone new; But you can't believe that they were right about you,

And oh, now the night's so long without you Oh, and the days go on without you
But sometimes, I just forget why.
