Holding onto what's already gone (versione 2)

Verse

Piano keys gone warm on the fifth repeat

Your hand still finding mine through the smoke

Three years of this same old streetlight glow

Same four words we kept and broke

Pre-Chorus

Maybe goodbyes are just long hellos in disguise

Maybe leaving's the only way to keep us alive

Can you feel it lifting like a door swings wide

I'm holding onto what's already gone tonight

Chorus

Holding onto what's already gone

Every goodbye turns into gold before dawn

I'll still hear your voice in every note I've sung

Even when the room is empty, love don't go as wrong

Verse

Your guitar strings hummed where our knees once touched

Six a.m. and you're walking out the door

Same old scarf wrapped tight around your throat

Still smells like summertime at four

Pre-Chorus

Maybe goodbyes are just long hellos in disguise

Maybe leaving's the only way to keep us alive

Can you feel it lifting like a door swings wide

I'm holding onto what's already gone tonight

Chorus

Holding onto what's already gone

Every goodbye turns into gold before dawn

I'll still hear your voice in every note I've sung

Even when the room is empty, love don't go as wrong

Bridge

Not letting go of something just because it ends

That's the bravest thing a heart can spend

The ache becomes a melody I keep

Goodbye got wings and it still sings with me

Chorus

Holding onto what's already gone

Every goodbye turns into gold before dawn

I'll still hear your voice in every note I've sung

Even when the room is empty, love don't go as wrong
