Mending Stars

Listening to old voicemails, just to hear you say my name
Every echo cuts a little deeper, but I press replay
The pain is welcome, ’cause it tells me that the love was real
But I don’t know how to heal

Every sunrise, you’re still missing
Every night, I feel the distance
Grief don’t ask for permission
Just hits me outta nowhere

I see you in the mirror’s edges
Hear your voice in old home videos
Like you never really left yet
But you’re not there

And I lose you again, again, again
Every day’s a brand-new ending
I wake up and it all comes crashing in
You’re gone, again, again
Wish I could hold on to the moments
But they slip right through my hands
And I lose you again

Still got your number, but there’s no one on the line
Wanna call just to tell you how my life’s been moving by
You’d be proud, I hear you say it, in my head like you’re still here
But silence makes it clear

Every sunrise, you’re still missing
Every night, I feel the distance
Grief don’t ask for permission
Just hits me outta nowhere

I see you in the mirror’s edges
Hear your voice in old home videos
Like you never really left yet
But you’re not there

And I lose you again, again, again
Every day’s a brand-new ending
I wake up and it all comes crashing in
You’re gone, again, again
Wish I could hold on to the moments
But they slip right through my hands
And I lose you again

Mmm, sometimes I swear I hear you laughing
Like you never left at all
Mmm, but the silence comes back faster
And I feel the fall

And I lose you again, again, again
Every day’s a brand-new ending
I wake up and it all comes crashing in
You’re gone, again, again
Wish I could hold on to the moments
But they slip right through my hands
And I lose you again

Listening to old voicemails, just to hear you say my name
Every echo cuts a little deeper, but I press replay
