I know by now that you won't call
But sometimes I still stare at the phone on the wall
Sometimes I still think you're here
Sometimes I forget you're gone
It hurts when I remember
Like someone turned the lights off and punched me in the gut
It hurts when I remember
Like someone came to tell me they've fallen out of love
All that I have left are all the pictures
But those can fade away
Wish that I could ask you what I want to
Cause you'd know what to say
It's not the same when I'm just praying
If I could have one day
I'd make you promise me you'd stay
If I could have one day
I'd make you say ok
You never got to see me grow up
I wish that you were here all along
I wonder what you'd say if you saw me now
I wonder if I'd make you proud
I hate that I can't call you
Or tell you what I'm thinking
Or ask you for advice
I hate that you can't come
To the concerts that I play at
Or hear the new songs I write
All that I have left are all the pictures
But those can fade away
Wish that I could ask you what I want to
Cause you'd know what to say
It's not the same when I'm just praying
If I could have one day
I'd make you promise me you'd stay
If I could have one day
I'd make you say ok
And most nights I stay awake and I cry cause
I don't understand why
All that I have left are all the pictures
But those can fade away
Wish that I could ask you what I want to
Cause you'd know what to say
It's not the same when I'm just praying
If I could have one day
I'd make you promise me you'd stay
If I could have one day
I'd make you say ok
