The chair in the corner stands empty, collecting shadows of the past
The clock in the living room ticks too loud, like my heart that won't slow down
Out on the balcony, the herbs have stopped blooming, as if they knew
I can't bring you back
The stars hang low over the city, so close I could reach for them
But they slip right through my fingers, like you slipped through my heart
Where did you go?
My one and only
My anchor in the storm
My compass in the desert
Mmh Mmh Mmh - Mmh Mmh Mmh
Where did you go?
The city smelled of asphalt and chaos, you smelled like revolution and cherry lipstick
On the old bridge beneath the freeway, our names are still carved in the wood
The letters half-faded, just like us
There's a spiderweb clinging to the window, and the trapped fly stares at me
Like it thinks it had all the time in the world, just like I did
Where did you go?
My one and only
My anchor in the storm
My compass in the desert
Mmh Mmh Mmh - Mmh Mmh Mmh
Where did you go?
The wind stumbles through the streets like a drunk looking for a cab
The rain taps at my window, like an old friend arriving too late to make things right
Your jacket still smells like the rain, and I wonder if the storm's out there, or just inside me
Love's a dance, but no one tells you when the music's gonna stop
Where did you go?
My one and only
My anchor in the storm
My compass in the desert
Mmh Mmh Mmh - Mmh Mmh Mmh
You're gone
The night feels like old vinyl, crackling and dark
And I keep setting the needle back to the start
