Table For Two

JP Cooper


I kind of know it's over
But I hold the door open, in case you'd follow
Grateful that I knew you
But now I wish we'd been just a one-night stand
It would be easier for the both of us

I'm keeping up the ghost chase
The key is in its old place, under the door mat
In case you come around here
Just to say hello or to never leave again
All that we built for the two of us

Because I don't feel like letting you go
Though I know that you may never come home
But I lay the table for two 'cause it's all that I'm used to
You see, I'm no good at being alone
And you know that I'm not giving up hope
So I lay the table for two because I really miss you

I can't say that we're over
My friends they ask me out, but I'm not going
I'm too busy waiting
Staying up for you, sleeping with your t-shirt
Things that I do, people call that love

Because I don't feel like letting you go
Though I know that you may never come home
But I lay the table for two 'cause it's all that I'm used to
You see, I'm no good at being alone
And you know that I'm not giving up hope
So I lay the table for two because I really miss you

I lay our bed
But there's a hole inside my chest
Even my bones can't get no rest
Darling, come home
Your sweet perfume
Hanging like moonbeams in the room
The only thing I've got left of you
Darling, come home

Because I don't feel like letting you go
Though I know that you may never come home
But I lay the table for two 'cause it's all that I'm used to
You see, I'm no good at being alone
And you know that I'm not giving up hope
So I lay the table for two because I really miss you
