Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She told me that it's over
Says we've drifted apart
After everything I told her
She drove off in a car
To another place, just not to face it
She left her clothes on the floor and I'm aching
Need to hold it all together now
[Verse 2]
Each day, each week
I'm getting further along
I'm fine at work
But lose it when I get home
And see the photos of us on the walls
That we took, and it hurts
[Verse 3]
The bed gets colder
Every morning I still want to hold ya
And keep you on my mind
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can't when I'm still broken
[Verse 4]
You're my first thought and my last one too
'Cause everything that's in between just leads me back to you
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can't when I'm still broken
[Verse 5]
She told me that she needs this
Says she's stuck in a rut
It can't be the only reason
'Cause she's still calling me up
To ask if I can drive her home at night
Her phone will die
Can't decide to decline or to brave it
You need to hold it all together now
[Verse 6]
Each day, each week
I'm getting further along
I'm fine at work
But lose it when I get home
And see the photos of us on the walls
That we took, and it hurts
[Verse 7]
The bed gets colder
Every morning I still want to hold ya
And keep you on my mind
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can't when I'm still broken
[Verse 8]
You're my first thought and my last one too
'Cause everything that's in between just leads me back to you
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can't when I'm still broken
[Verse 9]
Now I'm tearing out my heart, just to give you what you want
And I don't need this lump in my throat
I wish I could be proud to be happy for you now
But it's way too soon to let you go
[Verse 10]
The bed gets colder
Every morning I still want to hold ya
And keep you on my mind
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can't when I'm still broken
[Verse 11]
You're my first thought and my last one too
'Cause everything that's in between just leads me back to you
If I could afford to be happy for you then I would
But I can't when I'm still broken
