|
An empty house |
|
Is the only thing standin' |
|
Between our lives |
|
And the speed of sound |
|
Some words flew out |
|
And made a crash landin' |
|
No love survived |
|
Not a trace could be found |
|
Chorus: |
|
I broke your heart |
|
With the back of my mind |
|
From the tip of my tongue |
|
To the end of the line |
|
I walked away |
|
And you stood there tremblin' |
|
Like a leaf |
|
In the autumn chill |
|
Now this house won't say, no |
|
What i'm still rememberin' |
|
Three angry words |
|
And a love that they killed |
|
Chorus |
|
Bridge: |
|
You couldn't say how much it hurt you |
|
And i couldn't see the damage i'd done |
|
'til i watched the greatest love i've known |
|
All come down to a slip of the tongue |
|
Well i'd take it back |
|
But time won't let me |
|
No, time just takes |
|
You further away |
|
I watched you pack |
|
A house full of memories |
|
Where did you go |
|
Lord, what did i say? |
|
Chorus |
