She’s Still Gone Lyrics

I wake up in the morning with my arms around my pillow
Then suddenly I realize I only hold a pillow
You′re not there, you're not there

I call your name and hear my voice run searching through the hallway
To return alone, confirming all I′ve known for so long
I'm alone, you're still gone

Still half asleep, I stumble to the kitchen for my coffee
My footsteps match my heartbeats, funny heartbeats on linoleum
The sound′s all wrong, you′re still gone

The sounds outside reminding me the world won't wait forever
And understanding says, "Don′t stand by empty graves"
You're on your own, all alone
She′s still gone
