It's like my whole world's been a mess since you left Put down an empty glass over our Kodak Spinning records that you gave me from way back And this whole scene's been on repeat It's the perfect definition of insanity Mama always told me There'd be days like this Weeks like this Where I miss your kisses But no one ever told me There'd be months like this Years like this Where I miss your kisses Hey, I miss your kisses Yeah, I packed up all your things into that blue suitcase (Into that blue suitcase) But still hoping that your going was a joke, April Fools' Day Why did you have to go away Now I don't understand how people just move on (People move on, how the people move on) So I left your robe and your raincoat in the closet by the phone 'Til you come back home Put down an empty glass over our Kodak Spinning records that you gave me from way back And this whole scene's been on repeat It's the perfect definition of insanity Mama always told me There'd be days like this Weeks like this Where I miss your kisses But no one ever told me There'd be months like this Years like this Where I miss your kisses Overheard your friends say that you found someone new Wonder if that rumour is true Really trying to be happy for you But it'll take time, time to get used to 'Cause in my mind, mind we made it through Me and you, but holding on to you any longer It's like holding on to water Now I got to let go, let go Guess I'll be the somebody who let you go Let go, let go I guess I'll be the somebody you used to know Mama always told me There'd be days like this Weeks like this Where I miss your kisses But no one ever told me There'd be months like this Years like this Where I miss your kisses Mama always told me There'd be days like this Weeks like this Where I miss your kisses But no one ever told me There'd be months like this Years like this Where I miss your kisses
