No Longer There 04:38
lyrics
You were the only face I'd ever known I was the light that was left on the floor But only as bright as you wanted me to be. With every whisper I moved with your name Shaking it off and then taking the blame Holding it all together perfectly. Everything we were And everything we knew Everything we had Is no longer there It was the only place I'd ever known I turned off the light on my way out the door Following you wherever you would go. But I was no gentleman that was for sure At least I believe that I could have been more Of everything that you wanted me to be

For You 05:38
lyrics
This morning I wrote you a letter I didn't know what else to do I put down everything I was feeling That I just couldn't say to you You know everything I do It's all for you I woke up feeling something had happened Something out of my control I wanted just to know that you missed me Sometimes I never know at all Love It pulls me in and tears me up

Home It's not enough Home It's for us But all that I can see Is ever changing from my memory I'm sorry that I never let you know That I see you in my dreams Every second Every hour Every day I wish you'd come back home Here It's only us Now We're left behind I remember just exactly how you sound I remember every day

about

No Longer There

You were the only face I'd ever known
I was the light that was left on the floor
But only as bright as you wanted me to be.
With every whisper I moved with your name
Shaking it off and then taking the blame
Holding it all together perfectly.

Everything we were
And everything we knew
Everything we had
Is no longer there

It was the only place I'd ever known
I turned off the light on my way out the door
Following you wherever you would go.
But I was no gentleman that was for sure
At least I believe that I could have been more
Of everything that you wanted me to be

You saw it for yourself
The way it all played out
Everything we had
Is no longer there


For You

This morning I wrote you a letter
I didn't know what else to do
I put down everything I was feeling
That I just couldn't say to you

You know everything I do
It's all for you

I woke up feeling something had happened
Something out of my control
I wanted just to know that you missed me
Sometimes I never know at all

Love
It pulls me in and tears me up

It's not enough
Home
It's for us
But all that I can see
Is ever changing from my memory

I'm sorry that I never let you know
That I see you in my dreams
Every second
Every hour
Every day
I wish you'd come back home

Here
It's only us
Now
We're left behind
I remember just exactly how you sound
I remember every day
