Lyrics
Verse 1
There’s a hole in this house where your picture used to hang
Got your name in my phone but it ain’t the same
Friday nights and a bottle of blame
Tryna outrun a memory I can’t outrun
Your boots ain’t by the door, your laugh ain’t in the hall
Every downtown bar still feels like us, that’s all
I tell myself I’m good, yeah I play it off
But every road I take just takes me back to lost
Pre-Chorus
I’ve tried movin’ on, I’ve tried my luck
But nobody hits like your love did, girl
Chorus (Big & Catchy)
I ain't found love since the last time love found me
Since your goodbye turned my whole world upside down on me
I’ve been chasin’ that buzz, that midnight whiskey feel
But nothing hits my heart like your goodbye still
I’ve tried, I’ve tried, but it just won’t be
I ain't found love since the last time love found me
Verse 2
Mama says time’s gonna heal that scar
But time just shows me where you are
In every song on the FM dial
In every mile of this backroad mile
Yeah I’ve held somebody new, but it don’t feel right
It’s just shadows in the neon light
They kiss me close but it ain’t the same
It’s just your memory wearin’ a different name
Pre-Chorus
I swear I’m tryin’, I swear I’m free
But your ghost still gets the best of me
Chorus (Repeat – Even Bigger)
I ain't found love since the last time love found me
Since your goodbye turned my whole world upside down on me
I’ve been chasin’ that buzz, that midnight whiskey feel
But nothing hits my heart like your goodbye still
I’ve tried, I’ve tried, but it just won’t be
I ain't found love since the last time love found me
Bridge (Half-Time Drop)
Maybe someday I’ll let you go
Maybe someday I’ll let me know
How to love without your memory
Final Chorus (Ad-Libs + Extra Hook Repetition)
I ain't found love since the last time love found me
Yeah, you wrecked this heart and set it free
I’ve been chasin’ that buzz, that midnight whiskey feel
But nothing hits my heart like your goodbye still
No I’ve tried, I’ve tried, but it just won’t be
I ain't found love…
No I ain't found love…
Since the last time love found me
