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
