Verse 1

You left your blue cup by the kitchen sink

I still move it when I need room to think

The hallway clock keeps losing time

I let it run; it sounds like mine

Pre-Chorus

I tell my friends I’m doing fine

Then take the long way home at night

Chorus

I keep your place in the quiet

Like a coat I can’t put away

I know we’re done, I don’t deny it

Some part of me still waits

When the morning comes, I’ll face it

When the room stops saying your name

But tonight I keep your place in the quiet

And let the hurt remain
