I know its the last time you'll ever look at me like that

You hold me close, but I know you wanna let go

You don't wanna be lonely, and I'm scared to be alone

You laugh at my jokes, but I know you're pretending

Why do you stay if you think our love is ending

We talk about nothing just to fill the space

The quiet between us wears a stranger's face

Your words fall soft, but they don't land true

I'm starting to miss someone that looks like you

I dance with your ghost as you go through the motions

Your eyes drift away like waves in slow motion

I know you're not really here, but I hang on to the moments

I just wanted to give you roses

I should've known all flowers wither

Just wish I could've stayed longer with her

When she loved me, when she loved me

As we walk through the park, we look at the sky

You say the moon's different tonight, like it's watching us fade

You trace circles on my skin, but your touch feels afraid

Our shadows stretch long, but never seem to align

Like two ghosts rehearsing a final goodbye

I dance with your ghost, oh, I know you're not coming back

We're mouthing the words to our forgotten track

I reach for your warmth, but my hand slips right through

How could I make it when I'm without you

I bought you roses, now they've all turned to grey

As silence grows, I know what you're afraid to say

Hello

I hear your voice, cracking through the wire

You whisper, I'm fine, but I know that you're tired

The silence burns long, and I'm still wired to

The version of you that's long since expired

(that's long since expired)

I know it's the last time you'll ever look at me like that

As all of the lights turn black, I'll keep pretending

That we're not past due, and you'll keep pretending

When you say I love you
