Lyrics

Drop

I still hear you leaving

I still hear you leaving

Verse 1

Three in the morning and the house won't settle

Your side of the bed still holds the shape of you

I pour one glass for a ghost that never drinks

Cold sheets and a colder truth

You said forever like it cost you nothing

Now forever is a word I can't pronounce

Chorus

You left me standing in the rain

You left me holding all the blame

I gave you everything I had

You gave me nothing back but pain

You left me standing in the rain

Drop

I still hear you leaving

I still hear you leaving

Verse 2

Your jacket hangs there like a stranger in my room

I keep the porch light burning just in case

Every promise that you made turned into smoke

I trace your name across the window glass

Somebody told me you were doing fine

Somebody lied and I believed them anyway

Pre-Chorus

And I don't sleep

And I don't eat

I just sit here counting cracks along the wall

Chorus

You left me standing in the rain

You left me holding all the blame

I gave you everything I had

You gave me nothing back but pain

You left me standing in the rain

Bridge

Lonely lonely lonely is the sound

Lonely lonely lonely all around

I don't want your sorry

I don't want your call

I just want to feel like I was ever here at all

Chorus

You left me standing in the rain

You left me holding all the blame

I gave you everything I had

You gave me nothing back but pain

You left me standing in the rain

Drop

I still hear you leaving

I still hear you leaving
