How long has it been since we last talked?
I miss your voice, miss hearing your thoughts
Every night I sleep in a cold and empty bed,
Watching my phone, for texts you never sent
Missing your voice, so I'm watching you on TV
It hits me then, how you said you'd never leave
Missing you more and more with each passing day
Imagining conversations with you, the things you'd say
And I'm waiting, waiting here for you
Tears on my cheeks, I know you knew
Alone in bed, hugging my pillow tightly
Tired of being the one waiting up, nightly
Fell asleep holding my phone, competing with your fame
Please come home, know that you won't be blamed (please)
But, I keep searching for the signs in every corner of my mind,
Hoping that you'll find your way back to me before the life fades away
Each moment feels like a lifetime, caught between the words left behind
And I'm waiting, waiting...
But, I keep searching for the signs in every corner of my mind,
Hoping that you'll find your way back to me before the life fades away
Each moment feels like a lifetime, caught between the words left behind
And I'm waiting, waiting here for you
Tears on my cheeks, I know you knew
Alone in bed, hugging my pillow tightly
Tired of being the one waiting up, nightly
Fell asleep holding my phone, competing with your fame
Please come home, know that you won't be blamed (please)
But, I catch glimpses of you when I dream late at night,
I can almost hear your laugh, it just doesn't feel right.
Scrolling through our memories, caught in the past,
Wondering how something so good could fade so fast.
Each heartbeat echoes with the silence you left,
Chasing dreams of us while I'm feeling so bereft.
When I watch you on TV, you're just a beautiful stranger
My favorite person, saying "Oh, I wish I could change her"?
That's just the nature of compromise, that's what you say
While you forgot about me, I stared at my phone all day
Checking for those texts, the ones you used to send me
The ones where you promised, promised you wouldn't leave
So I'll hold on to the echoes of what we used to be,
A bittersweet reminder of the love between you and me
But, I keep searching for the signs in every corner of my mind,
Hoping that you'll find your way back to me before the life fades away
And I'm waiting, waiting here for you
Tears on my cheeks, I know you knew
Alone in bed, hugging my pillow tightly
Tired of being the one waiting up, nightly
Fell asleep holding my phone, competing with your fame
Please come home, know that you won't be blamed (please)
But, I catch glimpses of you when I dream late at night,
I can almost hear your laugh, it just doesn't feel right.
Scrolling through our memories, caught in the past,
Wondering how something so good could fade so fast.
Each heartbeat echoes with the silence you left,
Chasing dreams of us while I'm feeling so bereft.
When I watch you on TV, you're just a beautiful stranger
My favorite person, saying "Oh, I wish I could change her"?
That's just the nature of compromise, that's what you say
While you forgot about me, I stared at my phone all day
