Places

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm reaching out for you

But now it's just an empty bed

Remembered you were here

How quickly i forget

You comin' through the door

Just an echo in my heart

And i try to pretend it's over

And i never get very far

Cus i just don't feel right

When i know you're not there

And the sound of goodbye

Still follows me everywhere

And i just can't move on

And i feel my heart stop instead

And the only thing that i see

The places you used to be

Yeah

You used to be

Yeah

Got your photographs

And i give them all away

But each time i close my eyes

I'm staring at your face

I open the closet door

Smell the scent of your cologne

And i try to pretend it's over

But you're everywhere i go

Cus i just don't feel right

When i know you're not there

And the sound of goodbye

Still follows me everywhere

And i just can't move on

And i feel my heart stop instead

And the only thing that i see

The places you used to be

I still sleep in the shirt

You left on the chair

I can still hear you walk up the stairs

I still can hardly breathe

Each time i forget, then try not

That you're not here with me

Cus it just don't feel right

When i know you're not there

And the sound of goodbye

Still follows me everywhere

Cus it just don't feel right

When i know you're not there

And the sound of goodbye

Still follows me everywhere

And i just can't move on

And i feel my heart stop instead

And the only thing that i see

The places you used to be

Cus it just don't feel right

When i know you're not there

And the sound of goodbye

Still follows me everywhere

And i just can't move on

And i feel my heart stop instead

And the only thing that i see

The places you used to be
