There's an empty space beside me in this old truck tonight,
I turn to where you used to be, but you're nowhere in sight.
Your laughter's just an echo, your smile a fading dream,
And I'm stuck here in the quiet, caught between what's lost and what could've been.
Where you used to be, there's nothing but the cold,
I'm reaching out to shadows of the stories we've told.
I close my eyes, I see you, but you're slipping through my hands,
Like the sand from summer beaches, or love that couldn't stand.
Where you used to be, I'm just lost in time,
Trying to hold on to a heart that once was mine.
The nights are growing longer, but the stars don't shine the same,
Every song on the radio whispers your name.
I can still taste the promises we made under the sky,
But now those words feel empty, like the tears I've cried.
Where you used to be, there's nothing but the cold,
I'm reaching out to shadows of the stories we've told.
I close my eyes, I see you, but you're slipping through my hands,
Like the sand from summer beaches, or love that couldn't stand.
Where you used to be, I'm just lost in time,
Trying to hold on to a heart that once was mine.
Maybe one day I'll find you in the winds that blow,
In the whisper of the trees, in the falling snow.
But for now, I'm left with the silence, the space you've left behind,
And I'll keep searching for the love I'm trying to find.
Where you used to be, there's nothing but the cold,
I'm reaching out to shadows of the stories we've told.
I close my eyes, I see you, but you're slipping through my hands,
Like the sand from summer beaches, or love that couldn't stand.
Where you used to be, I'm just lost in time,
Trying to hold on to a heart that once was mine.
Where you used to be, it's just me and the wind,
And I'm here, waiting for the heartache to end.
