[Intro – soft acoustic guitar arpeggios, faint piano hum]
Morning light spills through the crack
Your side of bed still holds the slack
[Verse 1 – gentle drum brushes join, warm piano chords]
I reach for you but find cold sheets
The coffee mug you used still meets
The edge of counter, dusted thin
Your favorite song still plays within
[Chorus 1 – layered vocals, subtle string swells]
Love missing, like a hole in the wall
Quiet spaces where your voice used to call
Every corner holds a ghost of your laugh
I’m still waiting for the echo to pass
[Verse 2 – soft bassline adds depth, acoustic guitar picks up pace]
I walk the route we took each night
The streetlamp still casts the same light
You’d stop to pet the stray cat’s fur
I still pause, like you’re there, sure
[Chorus 2 – fuller instrumentation, vocals gain quiet urgency]
Love missing, like a book left unread
Pages folded where your words were said
Every breath I take tastes like your name
I’m still stuck in the frame we made
[Interlude – piano solo, soft string backing]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Bridge – stripped back to acoustic guitar and vocals]
I found your scarf inside the coat
The scent of you still floats
I don’t know if I’ll wash it clean
Or let the memory stay, unseen
[Chorus 3 – full band swells, emotional peak]
Love missing, like a star that burned out
Empty sky where your light once stood out
I keep waiting for the dark to fade
But your love’s still the price I paid
[Outro – fading acoustic guitar, final piano note]
Morning light spills through the crack
Your side of bed still holds the slack
