Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a dress in the closet that I just can't throw away
I know it might sound crazy, but I haven't changed your pillowcase
A heart half-full or half-empty is half gone either way, with you gone
What went wrong? Mmm
[Verse 2]
Maybe the hardest part is we didn't break this heart
Nobody cheated or lied, I still have to live with goodbye
But how can I just move on? I've loved you for way too long
I don't want to admit that you're gone
[Verse 3]
I don't wanna write this song
Don't wanna write this song, no
[Verse 4]
Another glass of whiskey by your picture in a frame
I'm playin' all the black keys and cryin' out your name
Holdin' on or lettin' go is gonna kill me to wait
With you gone
[Verse 5]
Oh, maybe the hardest part is we didn't break this heart
Nobody cheated or lied, I still have to live with goodbye
But how can I just move on? I've loved you for way too long
I don't want to admit that you're gone
[Verse 6]
I don't wanna write this song
Don't wanna write this song
[Verse 7]
Bobby pins on the dresser, wilted flowers in a vase
I left a rose on your headstone, I never quite know what to say
[Verse 8]
Oh, maybe the hardest part is we didn't break this heart
Nobody cheated or lied, I still have to live with goodbye
So, how can I just move on? I've loved you for way too long
Don't want to admit that you're gone
[Verse 9]
I don't wanna write this song
No, don't wanna write this song
I don't wanna write this song
Don't wanna write this song, mmm, whoa
