That's How You Know
When you take the train to midtown
To have coffee by yourself
Pull the pictures from the drawer
Put them back up on the shelf
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
When you open up the curtains
Start answering the phone
Stop driving around for hours
'Cause you hate going home
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
There's no such thing
As a long goodbye
When you wish it would've lasted
Your whole life
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
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
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
To have coffee by yourself
Pull the pictures from the drawer
Put them back up on the shelf
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
When you open up the curtains
Start answering the phone
Stop driving around for hours
'Cause you hate going home
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
There's no such thing
As a long goodbye
When you wish it would've lasted
Your whole life
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
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
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
