Eleven Months

Verse 1

I kept your coat behind the door

For eleven months or more

Told myself I'd throw it out

But I never found the nerve somehow

You said forever like it weighed

Nothing at all upon your shoulders

Now I sit here growing older

Pre-Chorus

And I don't hate you

I just miss who I was

Back when I believed you

Chorus

Oh I loved you

God I loved you

Loved you till it broke me in two

Oh I loved you

Still I loved you

Even when the loving wasn't true

Post-Chorus

(Oh) Mmm

(Oh) Mmm

Verse 2

I saw you laughing down the street

With your hand inside her hand

Turned my face and held my breath

Like a stranger in my own land

I don't want to be the one

Who keeps a candle burning low

But I don't know how to let go

Pre-Chorus

And I don't blame you

I just ache for all the years

That I gave to someone else's dream

Chorus

Oh I loved you

God I loved you

Loved you till it broke me in two

Oh I loved you

Still I loved you

Even when the loving wasn't true

Bridge

So here I am

Standing in the kitchen light

Learning how to say goodbye

Learning how to mean it this time

Say goodbye

Say goodbye

Chorus

Oh I loved you

God I loved you

Loved you till it tore me in two

Oh I loved you

Yeah I loved you

Now I'm learning how to love myself too

Post-Chorus

(Oh) Mmm

(Oh) Mmm

Outro

I loved you

I loved you
