Two Strings to Hold (النسخة 2)

Verse

I woke up to the sound of you leaving

Your boots in the hall like a goodbye I knew

The window was steaming from last night's heat

But your jacket was gone and that's all there'd be

You said it was over, no going back now

I believed it too till morning came around

Still your hair was tangled on my pillowcase

And your scent lingered like a ghost in this place

Pre-Chorus

Maybe some hearts can heal without being broke

But mine's still ringing from the sound of you walking out

So I'm standing here wondering if it's worth holding on

Or should I just let go and move along?

Chorus

I've got two strings that I hold onto tight

Two threads that keep me thinking 'bout you at night

They hum in my chest like a lonely old guitar

Two strings to hold, but only one of us is there

Every highway leads back to your door

Even when it's closed and I'm standing on the floor

I keep on playing these two notes alone

Hoping someday they'll turn into our own rhyme

Verse

I've been driving through these same old towns

Seeing places we used to walk around

Your smile comes back in every sunset light

And for a second, it feels like everything's alright

But then the radio cuts your name out

Leaves me singing these two empty notes without you now

The sky goes dark and I'm still holding on

To what we had before you said goodbye was gone

Pre-Chorus

Maybe some hearts can heal without being broke

But mine's still ringing from the sound of you walking out

So I'm standing here wondering if it's worth holding on

Or should I just let go and move along?

Chorus

I've got two strings that I hold onto tight

Two threads that keep me thinking 'bout you at night

They hum in my chest like a lonely old guitar

Two strings to hold, but only one of us is there

Every highway leads back to your door

Even when it's closed and I'm standing on the floor

I keep on playing these two notes alone

Hoping someday they'll turn into our own rhyme

Bridge

It doesn't have to end like a sad old song

Maybe what we had was just a little too long

So I'll keep on singing 'til you come back around

And when you do, I'll trade my lonely sound for two hearts beating as one

Chorus

I've got two strings that I hold onto tight

Two threads that keep me thinking 'bout you at night

They hum in my chest like a lonely old guitar

Two strings to hold, but only one of us is there

Every highway leads back to your door

Even when it's closed and I'm standing on the floor

I keep on playing these two notes alone

Hoping someday they'll turn into our own rhyme
