apartment Lyrics

Fall comes early New York

September hits and I already feel the cold

Building inside my heart

When you left me all alone

In our apartment

In our apartment

I come home to empty rooms

Where you once stood waiting for me to cook

Pots and pans replaced by takeout

Conversations replaced by silence

In our apartment

In our apartment

It's been a year and I'm still waiting

To wake up from this nightmare I'm living

But the sun will rise

As my eyes dry

In the dark

No one can see me cry

As the songbird sings

A morning melody

It finally hits me

The bed is empty

Where you used to be

Where you used to be

Shadows stain the walls

Where Polaroids used to adorn them all

All our trips to faraway places

All the jokes no one traces

Back to us

Sitting in boxes in the dark

The sun will rise

As my eyes dry

In the dark

No one can see me cry

As the songbird sings

A morning melody

It finally hits me

The bed is empty

For all the right reasons

You were right to leave these seasons behind

For more consistency

You've always loved the sun

More than sweaters and snow

But my love

I lost my light

Since you've been gone

But I know

The sun will rise

As my eyes dry

In the dark

No one can see me cry

As the songbird sings

A morning melody

It finally hits me

The bed is empty

It finally hits me

That you left me
