Auburn

It's a feeling that passes And visits me sometimes It's the silence that grips me In the middle of the night It's the heaviness I'm feeling Every time the sun sets But I haven't given up on you yet And though I no longer need you I still like you the most And though we may not be speaking I thought that you should know That I can still picture Your perfect silhouette And I haven't given up on you yet You know the night falls much harder On me these days And I shouldn't think about what could have been But I do it anyway And though I may be slipping I'm still hanging by a thread But I haven't given up on you yet And though I no longer need you I smell you on my clothes And it leaves me in pieces I thought that you should know That I'd rather sleep here on the floor Than a half empty bed And I haven't given up on you yet When the weather starts changing And days turn into weeks When autumn's finally given up And fallen on her knees I still recall word for word The last thing that you said But I haven't given up on you yet And though I no longer need you I want you somewhere close I want to see you one more time Putting on my coat And what I'd give just to share One more cigarette And I haven't given up on you yet
