Lyrics

One more night falls and surrounds me
Time has not replaced the arms you wrapped around me
Hiding that old high school shirt, the one you used to wear
Whispering I'm sorry but the walls don't seem to care

(Chorus)
Broken memories haunting our bedroom
Now I see you'd still be here...... if I'd been there for you
It reminds me, it all reminds me
Everything reminds me I
need you

The sun starts to shine through the window
This drunken bottle hasn't left me alone

repeat Chorus

It reminds me, it all reminds me
Everything reminds me I
still need you
One more night falls and surrounds me
