Where Does the Ache Go
by Awesomebri16
Lyrics
Verse 1
Your coat is still hanging by the door
One sleeve turned inside out
I pass it every time I leave
Like I could turn around
You said the silence did us in
I said we needed room
Now every room remembers you
And none of them feel new
Pre-Chorus
I keep the last message unread
As if that changes what you said
Chorus
If I let you go, where does the ache go?
Does it learn my name, does it leave me alone?
I can shut my eyes, I can change the road
But every way I run brings me back to you
If I let you go, if I let you go
Verse 2
The elevator takes its time
The floor numbers crawl by slow
I almost call you from the hall
Then watch the screen go cold
Your coffee cup is upside down
Beside the kitchen sink
I keep pretending little things
Are smaller than they seem
Pre-Chorus
I keep the last message unread
As if that changes what you said
Chorus
If I let you go, where does the ache go?
Does it learn my name, does it leave me alone?
I can shut my eyes, I can change the road
But every way I run brings me back to you
If I let you go, if I let you go
Bridge
Maybe love can end and still be true
Maybe I can miss you and move through
But tonight the distance fills the room
And I don't know what to do
Final Chorus
If I let you go, where does the ache go?
Does it learn my name, does it leave me alone?
I can shut my eyes, I can change the road
But every way I run brings me back to you
If I let you go, if I let you go
If I let you go, where does the ache go?
