The Saddest Song (Not Coming Home) Lyrics

The saddest song I ever heard
Was the last song I wrote down for you
It was the saddest day you've ever seen
Me in my chair and you gone
But I still tried to sing it
In case you walked back through my door

And with tears in my eyes
And choke in my throat
I held hope

Because we had some good things
And we had some broken things, I know
I know that we had some old things
But d***, they were our things, I know
But I know it could never be different
But I wanted to say that I miss you
But you're not coming home

The hardest thing I've ever done
Was sit down and tell you my truth
It was the hardest thing to look at you
Look at you and tell you my truth
But I still had to tell it
My hope wrapped in faith
That you'd stay
And my prayers screamed to praying
For you but you went away

Because we had some good things
And we had some broken things, I know
I know that we had some old things
But d***, they were our things, I know

But I know it could never be different
But I wanted to say that I miss you
But you're not coming home
