Love After The Ending

[HOOK / OPENING]

I thought love ended when you left
But maybe it was just changing shape
Now I'm learning how to breathe again
And let somebody in someday

[VERSE 1]

Your picture's still inside my phone
I don't look at it like I used to
There's a street I never drive down
'Cause every corner still leads to you

For a while I blamed the silence
For a while I blamed myself
But you can't keep holding something
Just because you knew it well

[PRE-CHORUS]

And tonight the room feels different
There's a little light coming through
Maybe losing what we were
Made space for something new

[CHORUS]

There's love after the ending
There's a heart after the hurt
There's a life I wasn't seeing
When I thought I'd lost my world
I don't need to forget you
To finally let you go
There's love after the ending
And I'm starting to know

[VERSE 2]

I can hear our old song playing
And it doesn't break me now
I can pass the places we went
Without turning the car around

Maybe healing isn't erasing
Every memory we made
Maybe it's keeping what was beautiful
Without wishing you had stayed

[PRE-CHORUS]

And tonight I feel the difference
I'm not scared of what's ahead
Maybe losing what we were
Wasn't losing everything

[CHORUS]

There's love after the ending
There's a heart after the hurt
There's a life I wasn't seeing
When I thought I'd lost my world
I don't need to forget you
To finally let you go
There's love after the ending
And I'm starting to know

[BRIDGE]

Maybe someday I'll meet someone
And it won't feel like starting over
It'll feel like all the broken pieces
Finally found somewhere to go

And I'll still remember you
Just not the way I did before
You were part of who I became
You don't have to be the door

[FINAL CHORUS]

There's love after the ending
There's a heart after the hurt
There's a life I wasn't seeing
When I thought I'd lost my world
I don't need to forget you
To finally let you go
There's love after the ending
Now I'm starting to know

There's love after the ending
There's a life beyond goodbye
And maybe what comes after
Can still take me by surprise
I don't need to forget you
I just need to let you go
There's love after the ending
And now I finally know
