You took the best of me, best of me
that i’ll ever know
I’m left with rest of me, rest of me
And I can’t let go
I’m waiting for a train that’s not coming
It’s like a waterfalling in my head

Oh won’t you tell me why
I keep waiting up at night
Leaving on the lights
Like you never said goodbye
I hear you at the door
Footsteps on the floor
But you’re not here no more
What hurts the most
Is sleeping with your ghost

I still feel you holding me, holding me
But all the warm is gone
I still hear you calling me, calling me
Where I don’t belong
How do you take the knife from your heart
When every beat still hurts the same

Oh won’t you tell me why
I keep waiting up at night
Leaving on the lights
Like you never said goodbye
I hear you at the door
Footsteps on the floor
But you’re not here no more
What hurts the most
Is sleeping with your ghost

When we had our baby girl I was scared to death
Doctor said darling you ready to push
Drove home like we stole the sun
Those kind of memories don’t fade don’t run
They stuck to the back of my mind
Hear you blowing in the trees at night
I’m still sleeping on my own side
Yeah they said you’d never be prepared for the worst ones
You took your bow, they dropped the curtains
No encore, just me on the floor
Waiting here for more

Oh won’t you tell me why
I keep waiting up at night
Leaving on the lights
Like you never said goodbye
I hear you at the door
Footsteps on the floor
But you’re not here no more
What hurts the most
Is sleeping with your ghost
