Here I go again  I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today 
It's been seven months and counting 
You've moved on 
I still feel exactly the same 
It's just that everywhere I go all the buildings know your name 
Like photographs and memories of love 
Steel and granite reminders 
The city calls your name and I can't move on 

Ever since you've been gone 
The lights go out the same 
The only difference is 
You call another name 
To your love 
To your lover now 
To your love 
The lover after me 

Am I all alone in the universe? 
There's no love on these streets 
I have given mine away to a world that didn't want it anyway 
So this is my new freedom 
It's funny I don't remember being chained 
But nothing seems to make sense anymore 
Without you I'm always twenty minutes late 

Ever since you've been gone 
The lights go out the same 
The only difference is 
You call another name 
To your love 
To your lover now 
To your love 
The lover after me 

And as time goes by so slowly 
The nights are cold and lonely 
I shouldn't be holding on 
But I'm still holding on for you 

Here I go again, I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today 
But I'm standing at your doorway 
I'm calling out your name because I can't move on 

Ever since you've been gone 
The lights go out the same 
The only difference is 
You call another name 
To your love 
To your lover now 
To your love 
The lover after me
