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
