Lyrics
Intro
(spoken softly)
I still set two cups out
Mm
Verse 1
Your coat hangs by the door
I haven't moved it yet
It smells like winter air
And everything I said
The kitchen keeps your chair
I dust it every week
Some habits hold me here
Some silence learns to speak
Verse 2
I wore your flannel shirt
The sleeves too long for me
I laughed into the collar
Then I couldn't breathe
My mother says move on
I nod and pour the tea
The window holds your shape
Where you used to be
Pre-Chorus
And I am still learning
I am still learning your name
In every room I say it
In every room the same
Chorus
I loved you like a season
I loved you like a storm
I loved you with my whole chest
Now I'm learning to be warm
I loved you in the morning
I loved you in the dark
I loved you like a promise
That outlived the spark
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, I loved you
Oh-oh, I loved you
Verse 3
I found your handwriting
Inside a library book
A grocery list from June
A number that you took
I traced it with my finger
The ink had gone so faint
Grief is just a garden
That grows around a saint
Pre-Chorus
And I am still learning
I am still learning your voice
In every quiet corner
I still don't have a choice
Chorus
I loved you like a season
I loved you like a storm
I loved you with my whole chest
Now I'm learning to be warm
I loved you in the morning
I loved you in the dark
I loved you like a promise
That outlived the spark
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, I loved you
Oh-oh, I loved you
Bridge
Maybe I'll be okay
Maybe I'll be okay
Maybe I'll grow a garden
And let the winter stay
Chorus
I loved you like a season
I loved you like a storm
I loved you with my whole chest
And I'm learning to be warm
I loved you in the morning
I loved you in the dark
I loved you like a promise
That outlived the spark
Post-Chorus
Oh-oh, I loved you
Oh-oh, I loved you
Outro
(spoken softly)
I'll leave the cup out
Just in case
