[Verse 1]
Our couch is cold, bed sheets are folded
The table is set for two
Your honest soul, so beautiful

Asking what if I, what if I, what if I
[Chorus 2]
When I close my eyes

In my broken car
Just you and I
For one last time
Where you are

[Chorus 3]
Still when I close my eyes
I wish I could find you
One more time
In my broken car
Just you and I
For one last time
Where you are
Where you are
