Lyrics

Intro

Oh

Ooh ooh

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

You left the porch light swinging

Casting shadows across the driveway where you used to park

Small stains of spilled red wine

Won't scrub out

Pre-Chorus

The house feels far too wide

I can't find a place to hide

Every door leads back to how we tried

Chorus

Give me one good reason to hold on

Give me one good reason to let go

I'm just a ghost in a gown

Looking for you in a town

Where everyone forgot your name

Give me one good reason to hold on

Verse 2

The closet smells of sandalwood

Woven deep inside the sweaters that you never claimed

Silver rings on the nightstand

Collecting grey bits of the past

Pre-Chorus

The house feels far too wide

I can't find a place to hide

Every door leads back to how we tried

Chorus

Give me one good reason to hold on

Give me one good reason to let go

I'm just a ghost in a gown

Looking for you in a town

Where everyone forgot your name

Give me one good reason to hold on

Bridge

Tell me

Teach me

Turn me around

Was I just a temporary shore

Waiting for your tide to come in

Only to watch you wash back out to sea

Chorus

Give me one good reason to hold on

Give me one good reason to let go

I'm just a ghost in a gown

Looking for you in a town

Where everyone forgot your name

Give me one good reason to hold on

Post-Chorus

One good reason

Ooh ooh

Just one

Just one

One good reason
