I Remember You
[00:16.90] I memorized the way you stood
[00:19.82] the night you said goodbye.
[00:23.53] Your collar crooked, hands in pockets
[00:26.45] you couldn't meet my eyes.
[00:29.90] You whispered something beautiful
[00:32.84] but I can't recall the words.
[00:36.01] For the first time your voice felt distant
[00:39.47] like a song I overheard.
[00:42.66] And I know you couldn't stay
[00:46.11] but the words you didn't say
[00:49.30] still echo every day.
[00:55.14] I held the door while you were leaving
[00:58.34] smiled like everything was fine.
[01:01.78] I held the door while you were leaving
[01:05.23] pretending you were still mine.
[01:08.68] Even when the hallway's empty
[01:11.89] and your shadow's lost in time.
[01:15.06] I held the door while you were leaving
[01:19.05] and I'd hold it every time.
[01:26.22] and I'd hold it every time.
[01:34.72] I found your ring inside the drawer
[01:37.90] the silver one you twist.
[01:41.63] I held it up against the light like
[01:44.55] something I had missed.
[01:47.73] My mother said I'd get through this
[01:50.67] the way that people do,
[01:53.86] But I keep setting a place for two.
[01:57.58] I'm one of them for you.
[02:00.50] And I know I should move on
[02:03.15] but how do you outrun the dawn
[02:07.15] when the sun was built from someone gone?
[02:12.98] I held the door while you were leaving
[02:16.44] smiled like everything was fine.
[02:19.63] I held the door while you were leaving
[02:23.08] pretending you were still mine.
[02:26.27] Even when the hallway's empty
[02:29.72] and your shadow's lost in time.
[02:32.64] I held the door while you were leaving
[02:36.63] and I'd hold it every time.
[02:43.53] and I'd hold it every time.
[02:52.30] The mornings are a little kinder
[02:56.01] the nights don't cut as deep.
[02:59.47] I wear your name beneath my collar
[03:02.66] a promise I still keep.
[03:06.37] And maybe you've moved on
[03:09.83] found a love to lean upon,
[03:13.82] but mine still plays your song.
[03:17.28] I held the door while you were leaving
[03:20.73] smiled like everything was fine.
[03:23.92] I held the door while you were leaving
[03:27.38] pretending you were still mine.
[03:39.06] Still I hurt the things I'd say
[03:41.99] if you ever walked my way.
[03:46.76] I was thinking you were sunlight
[03:50.21] cutting through the ocean floor.
[03:53.67] And I know you couldn't save me,
[03:56.60] that was never what you were for.
[04:00.04] But you made the drowning gentle,
[04:03.23] made the silence feel like more.
[04:06.42] I was broken before you touched me
[04:09.89] you just showed me where I tore.
[04:17.04] you just showed me where I tore.
[04:24.75] I held the door while you were leaving,
[04:26.73] but I'm closing it for good.
[04:30.72] I held the door while you were leaving
[04:33.38] longer than I should.
[04:36.58] And even though you're gone, still you linger
[04:40.02] in the walls beneath the floor.
[04:43.47] I held the door while you were leaving
[04:47.24] but I won't hold it anymore.
