We laughed under skies that we swore wouldn't fade

Now silence has taken the place where you laid

The coffee still brews like you're coming back home

But mornings feel colder when I wake up alone

I still hear your key in the door

Like you'll walk through and be mine once more

But the silence has finally learned how to speak

And it hums like the sound of our hearts on repeat

Bittersweet, like the songs of yesterday

Still hummin' the words though you've been gone

Yeah, love doesn't die, it just changes its name

Your music still plays but the melody's changed

Your sweater still hangs like it's waiting for spring

But time doesn't pause for remembering things

The photos don't fade, but the color feels wrong

Like echoes that do not know where they belong

I still hear your key in the door

Like you'll walk through and be mine once more

But the silence has finally learned how to speak

And it hums like the sound of our hearts on repeat

Bittersweet, like the songs of yesterday

Still hummin' the words though you've been gone

Yeah, love doesn't die, it just changes its name

Your music still plays but the melody's changed

I walk through rooms like they're new crimes

Looking for clues in secondhand signs

A hair tie, a blistered book spine

All things she left behind

She said that she's tired of being mirrors

To a man who's never there

So she left a note, with no signature

Just: "I hope someday you care”

Bittersweet, like the songs of yesterday

Still hummin' the words though you've been gone

Yeah, love doesn't die, it just changes its name

Your music still plays but the melody's changed
