Lyrics

This Empty Love

[Verse 1]

I'm in a room, and there is something wrong

I can't remember how I got here, at all

Her body's lying next to me, on the bed

This place smells of smoke and the alcohol on my breath

I look at her to see if she's awake

Her eyes are open

She whispers

[Chorus]

'This empty love leaves us alone (This empty love)

This empty love leaves us alone'

[Verse 2]

I leave the bed to gather up my clothes

She covers up her skin, I'm moving for the door

She says:

'If you walk out now this is the last time that we speak

You tell her that you love her so then how could you love me?

Don't make promises you can't keep'

Her eyes are open

I whisper

[Chorus]

'This empty love leaves us alone (This empty love)

This empty love leaves us alone'

[Bridge]

Her eyes are open

Touch! Touch!

Her eyes are open

Touch! Touch!

Her eyes are open

Touch! Touch!

Her eyes are open

Touch! Touch!

[Chorus]

'This empty love leaves us alone

This empty love leaves us alone'

'This empty love leaves us alone

This empty love leaves us alone'

[Outro]

I'm in a room, and there is something wrong

No one's lying next to me, at all
