Maybe it's from the letters that you sent
Maybe it's from those concert tickets that I kept
or those sweet poems you wrote me
or my shirt you'd wear to sleep

Maybe it's from the pictures that we took
Maybe it's the sketches
that you'd leave in my notebook
or that puzzle we never got around to
or the gifts I never got to give you

Like the warmth of your fingers
in my coat pocket last winter
or the look on your face
when you were worried I got thinner
Like the scent of that candle
I dropped over our dinner that night
that night

Maybe
the love that you gave me
was far too strong
it lingers on

Maybe it's from the way you'd hold my hand
or the way your nose would scrunch up
every time you laughed
or the way your cheeks would get red
when I said you were the prettiest I've met

And maybe it's from those moments I regret
and maybe it's those things
that I wish I had never said
and the way you'd leave the room
so you wouldn't hurt me too

Like the breeze in the air on our walks back
in November
or all the things I said I'd do for you
when I became a singer
Or the look in your eyes
when I promised I'd be with you for life
For life

Maybe
the love that you gave me,
was far too strong
it lingers on

Maybe
I've been missing you lately
Now that you're gone
it lingers on

Every poem you ever wrote me
Every song and every story
Every word you said
it lingers on

Every nickname you would call me
In every light you ever saw me
everything you did
it lingers on

Every fight and every sorry
Every tear comes back to haunt me
Every push and shove
it lingers on

Every reason that I loved you
Every moment we spent as two
When all is said and done
it lingers on

Maybe
It's your love that saved me
Promise I'll be strong
I'll linger on
