Still Finding the Ground (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Your favorite book still sits where you left it

A silver ring on the windowsill

Six months of Sundays now gone cold

But I keep the quiet, not the name only

I found your scarf in the front hall closet

Folded just right, waiting for homecoming day

Your mother's perfume on the pillowcase

Pre-Chorus

So how do I say goodbye to this?

How do I let go of what still feels like me?

I thought losing you would be the hardest part

But it turns out it's keeping you that breaks my heart

Chorus

Still finding ground in an empty space

Where your shadow used to land, where your voice used to fill this place

I'm not over yet, I'm still standing here

Learning how to love without losing what I hold dear

Verse 2

Your guitar's strings are dust now

But the way you played those chords in the kitchen sink still echoes on

The coffee cup with 'I will be back' written on it in dry ink

Still sits by the pot, a promise I keep

You said someday you'd return to me

And I believed that every single time you left.

The problem is knowing when someone's really gone

Not just gone from my bed, but gone from my song

Pre-Chorus

So how do I say goodbye to this?

How do I let go of what still feels like me?

I thought losing you would be the hardest part

But it turns out it's keeping you that breaks my heart

Chorus

Still finding ground in an empty space

Where your shadow used to land, where your voice used to fill this place

I'm not over yet, I'm still standing here

Learning how to love without losing what I hold dear

Bridge

Maybe it's not a goodbye at all

Just one version ending so another can begin

The same sun is shining through the windowpane

It just looks different now that you're not inside this frame

Chorus

Still finding ground in an empty space

Where your shadow used to land, where your voice used to fill this place

I'm not over yet, I'm still standing here

Learning how to love without losing what I hold dear
