When You're Gone

[Verse] The fields are silent, the crickets sing, Lonesome memories that midnight brings, Sky's so empty, stars feel far, Since you left, I'm talking to the dark. [Verse 2] Coffee's cold, and the chair's still there, Empty shadows in the morning air, Dog keeps howling, looking for you, House feels hollow, and the days are blue. [Chorus] When you're gone, the world's in black and white, Every moment feels like endless night, Heart aches heavy, can't pretend, I'm just waiting 'til you're back again. [Verse 3] Dust on the mantle, and tears on my sleeve, Replaying moments I still can't believe, Old guitar sits, strings left to rust, Can't find the melody without your trust. [Verse 4] Staring at the mailbox, hoping for a sign, In every whisper, hear your voice entwined, Neighbors pass by, they know I'm alone, Lost in this small town without my own. [Bridge] Roads we traveled now feel so long, Every corner echoes our song, Time stands still, can't move along, When you're gone, everything's wrong.
