Lyrics

My new habit, missing you

Every morning starts the same
Staring at my empty cup
I pour two out of habit
But your seat is never filled up

I check my phone, your name’s not there
The silence is so loud
Still I save your favorite song
And play it in the background

I keep pretending it gets easier
But every day, it just gets clearer

Missing you is my new habit
Waking up and reaching out for you
Even when the world is moving
I’m stuck in the things we used to do
Every sunrise brings your shadow
Every night, I wish you’d come back through
Missing you is my new habit
And I can’t seem to break it soon

There’s your toothbrush by the sink
I haven’t moved it yet
I leave your coffee mug untouched
Like you’re coming home, I bet

All my friends say I’ll adjust
But they don’t know the truth
I make the bed on your side last
Just to feel a piece of you

I keep pretending it gets easier
But every day, it just gets clearer

Missing you is my new habit
Waking up and reaching out for you
Even when the world is moving
I’m stuck in the things we used to do
Every sunrise brings your shadow
Every night, I wish you’d come back through
Missing you is my new habit
And I can’t seem to break it soon

You’re the first thing on my mind
And the last before I sleep
Every little thing reminds me
Of the pieces I can’t keep

Missing you is my new habit
Waking up and reaching out for you
Even when the world is moving
I’m stuck in the things we used to do
Every sunrise brings your shadow
Every night, I wish you’d come back through
Missing you is my new habit
And I can’t seem to break it soon

My new habit, missing you
