Empty Rooms

[Verse 1]

Packing tape and boxes

One imaginary line

Two carefully negotiated piles, set aside

You can keep the TV

I'll never find the time

That bed we bought together

Ain't feel like mine in quite a while

[Hook]

Every window is open

Spring time in bloom

I'm standing in an empty room

[Verse 2]

I read a lot of books

About how to be alone

How it don't take much of nothing

To really feel at home

Bearing walls of promising

But lonely as can be

They're good for casting shadows

But my shadow's casting me

[Hook]

I keep on making plans

They keep on falling through

I'm standing in an empty room

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]

Whenever I think of you

I hope you're doing fine

I'm glad you find a reason

To get out from time to time

Me, I'm doing okay

But I won't say trouble free

I've got a couple friends with me

To keep me company

They drag me to a party

I walked in and I saw you

Now everybody's watching

Wondering what we'll do

Oh I figured this would happen

I just didn't know how soon

[Outro]

We're standing in an empty room

Now we're standing in an empty room
