[Verse 1] I still set your place at the table Talk to your chair like you might walk in Every cup in this house remembers your fingerprints Every night I drink from them again
Your sweater still sleeps on my shoulder Threadbare But I wear it like a shield Your name is a song that my silence keeps humming Soft under everything I feel
Love didn’t leave when you did It lingers in the doorway Watching me breathe Every tear just waters what we planted Hurts to touch But I can’t cut down this tree
So I hold what’s left like a photograph fading Edges gone But your eyes stay clear If letting go means losing the last of your echo I’d rather ache than not have you here
