It hits when I set the table

Or when I turn out the lights

And I don't hear a voice

That whispers goodnight

It hits when I'm in the backyard

And the summer sky smells like rain

Small things like that

Make memories come back again

(chorus)

Shame on me

For kissing you with my eyes closed

And telling myself I had so much time

Losing you never crossed my mind

Shame on me

It thought the way that it was

Was how it would always be

To love someone so carelessly

Shame on me

I'm taking more time for sunsets

And the sound of the birds at dawn

'Cause I know how it feels

To miss what's gone

It hits when I'm out with old friends

And I hear them speak your name

Oh how I wish

There was somebody else to blame
