(Verse 1)
I still set the table for two,
Like you're walking through that door real soon.
The air feels heavier these days,
Your laughter's gone, but it still plays.
I wear your sweater when nights get too long,
Chasing the ghost of a half-finished song.
Every shadow, every creak of the floor,
Makes me believe you'll be back once more.
(Pre-Chorus)
But hearts don't break like glass,
They shatter slow, piece by piece, as time drags past.
No clean cuts, just endless scars,
I’m left counting all the falling stars.
(Chorus)
Love doesn’t leave all at once, it fades,
Like the colors of autumn in slow cascade.
I’m holding on to a silhouette,
A memory that my heart won’t forget.
Every whisper is an empty sound,
Every glance at the door, I break down.
Love doesn’t leave all at once, it fades,
But somehow, I’m still begging it to stay.
(Verse 2)
Your side of the bed stays cold,
I sleep on the edge, 'cause it feels less alone.
I swear I still hear your keys jingle near,
But it’s just the wind playing tricks on my fear.
I count every promise we swore we'd keep,
Carving them deep where the daylight can't reach.
The radio plays our song on repeat,
But it sounds more like defeat.
(Pre-Chorus)
'Cause hearts don't break like glass,
They shatter slow, piece by piece, as time drags past.
No clean cuts, just endless scars,
I’m left counting all the falling stars.
(Chorus)
Love doesn’t leave all at once, it fades,
Like the colors of autumn in slow cascade.
I’m holding on to a silhouette,
A memory that my heart won’t forget.
Every whisper is an empty sound,
Every glance at the door, I break down.
Love doesn’t leave all at once, it fades,
But somehow, I’m still begging it to stay.
