Intro: verse 1 When you take the train to midtown To have coffee by yourself Pull the pictures from the drawer And put 'em back up on the shelf verse 2 When you hear the sound of church bells And they don’t make you wanna cry And you’re not getting drunk Just so you can hide That’s how you know That’s how you know verse 3 When you open up the curtains Start answering the phone Stop driving 'round for hours 'Cause you hate going home verse 4 When you can talk about it Even say their name When you start thinking you’ll survive Even though you’ll never be the same That’s how you know That’s how you know That’s how you know That’s how you know Bridge There’s no such thing as a long goodbye When you wish it would’ve lasted your whole life Verse 5 When you don’t need a cigarette Or a pill to help you sleep When you don’t end every night On the hard wood on your knees Verse 6 When you wake up one morning Surprised to see the world exists And your eyes ain’t full of tears And your heart ain’t full of bitterness That’s how you know That’s how you know That’s how you know That’s how you know Interlude: Verse 7 When you’re thankful that you ever knew A love this strong When you finally find the courage To write this song That’s how you know That’s how you know That’s how you know You’re moving on
