Empty House Songtext
von Francesca Blanchard

Empty house
You remind me of when I was ten years old
Staring at your walls, feeling mighty old
Promising myself I′d never get too bold

Empty house
Your silence holds secrets I can't keep
The bird in your cage never falls asleep
She wails into night and fails to give me peace

But in my hand
I hold a picture of a man who once left me long ago
When he told me
"What you need to understand is you′ll never be alone"


No matter place
No matter time
Whatever space
Right down the line
You will find
Another face
New love to shine
A changed pace
Brand new rhyme
You won't be on your own

Empty heart
Your memories are following me to bed
They've crawled into my pillow
Now they′re stuck inside my head
I′ve tried so hard to leave them
But they've reemerged instead

God, this house she could inspire
This house she could revive
I′m stuck here with desire
But at least I'm still alive
I don′t know what I'm chasing
My breath is running out
My mind she′s erasing
With you in her, no doubt

But in my hand
I hold a picture of a man who once left me long ago
When he told me
"What you need to understand is you'll never be alone"


No matter place
No matter time
Whatever space
Right down the line
You will find
Another face
New love to shine
A changed pace
Brand new rhyme
You won't be on your own

But in my hand
I hold a picture of a man who once left me long ago
When he told me
"What you need to understand is you′ll never be alone"

No matter place
No matter time
Whatever space
Right down the line
You will find
Another face
New love to shine
A changed pace
Brand new rhyme
You won′t be on your own

You won't be on your own
You won′t be on your own
You won't be on your own
You won′t be on your own
