Movin' through the room
I'm lookin' back to see just where you are
Six weeks by your bedside
Prayin' for a miracle or a shootin' star
Every night I see your face
And every mornin' there's not a trace
Cruel is the daylight
That doesn't let you see what you know is true
I can hear your voice
And see the smile that I would always see when I saw you
It's so lonely in this place
I feel I've fallen from grace
I don't know how to grieve
Yeah, I just can't believe that you're gone
I can't even breathe
There's only memories left to linger on
Left to linger on
The further we went on
I knew somethin' was wrong, I felt it in my gut
I thought Pandora was jokin'
When she said some doors that open won't ever shut
Like a lion in a cage
My hands are fists of rage
I don't know how to grieve
Yeah, I just can't believe that you're gone
I can't even breathe
There's only memories left to linger on
There's a war I gotta fight
For my soul down here tonight, no, I'm not that strong
I can't even breathe
There's only memories left to linger on
Left to linger on
Ashes will scatter
Love was all that mattered
When you were here with me
You ain't comin' home
I don't know if it's true
I heard you got somebody new watchin' over you
They say you moved uptown
And the place that you got now's got a lovely view
I wish you were still here
It's not the same without you, dear
I don't know how to grieve
Yeah, I just can't believe that you're gone
I can't even breathe
There's only memories left to linger on
There's a war I gotta fight
For my faith down here tonight, no, I'm not that strong
I can't even breathe
There's only memories left to linger on
Left to linger on
Left to linger on
Left to linger on
