Don't Know How

A quiet surrender. Not about moving on, but about understanding that love changes form. A soft admission: “I don’t know how to stop missing you.” Credits Lyrics by Lalela Music by Suno Produced and Mixed by Lalela Creative Direction: Lalela Cover Art & Visual Concept: Lalela © 2025 Lalela.

Verse 1 The coffee cup’s still in the cabinet Second shelf, left-hand side I still reach for two each morning Like you’re standing by my side The house don’t make the same old sounds Since you quit walking through Funny how the quiet now Just sounds like you Pre-Chorus I turn the hallway light on Then I turn it off again Like I’m keeping watch for footsteps That ain’t coming back in Chorus I don’t know how to stop missing you I don’t know where to start You’re folded in the corners Of every room and every heart I hear you in the silence I feel you in the air If love was something I could lose You wouldn’t still be there I don’t know how to stop missing you Verse 2 Your sweater’s hanging by the back door I tell myself I’ll move it soon But something in me can’t quite stand An emptier room I talk to you in half-sentences Like you’re just upstairs asleep Guess grief is just love With nowhere left to speak Pre-Chorus Some nights I swear I feel you Sit down beside my chair And I don’t turn around too fast In case you’re really there Chorus I don’t know how to stop missing you I don’t know how I’d try You’re written in the woodwork You’re stitched into the sky I hear you in the silence In every settling sound This house still holds your heartbeat In walls that hold me now I don’t know how to stop missing you Bridge They say that time will soften it But time don’t take your place It just teaches me to carry you With steadier hands each day If loving you was breathing Then I’m still breathing slow And I don’t know how to stop I don’t want to let you go Final Chorus I don’t know how to stop missing you I think I never will You’re in the way the morning light Falls across the windowsill I hear you in the silence And I let it linger through If this is what forever is I’ll sit here loving you I don’t know how to stop missing you
