About losing someone

Watching pictures on the news
Hoping that I might see you
All the pictures turn to fuzz
Dust to dust

I havent heard from you in days
Are you ok?
I’ve got all the lights on because I can’t get to sleep
Without you here with me

Now im waiting here for you
Waiting like a fool
Because youre not coming home
I should know by now
But I cant forget somehow
Youre not coming home

I go about my business
The day to day affairs
Sometimes I still think of you
You come out of nowhere

I haven’t heard from you in weeks
I can’t get to sleep
I’ve turned all the lights off because they do nothing for me
They just light up where you should be

Now im waiting here for you
Waiting like a fool
Because youre not coming home
I should know by now
But I cant forget somehow
Youre not coming home

I havent heard from you in years
I don’t know why I’m still waiting here
I guess its just the way things go
Everyone has to leave, I know
I have to let go

Now im waiting here for you
Waiting like a fool
Because youre not coming home
I should know by now
But I cant forget somehow
Youre not coming home
