Lyrics
An Empty Room © 1999 Steve Rapson
I sleep till noon
I sleep alone
An empty room, an empty home
Echoes they fade
On empty walls
Each step I take, your name I call
An empty room
An empty bed
An empty heart
So cruel those words I said
I am to blame
I was the fool
I need you here
To fill this empty room
Ashtrays are full
Windows are bare
The night is hard in this easy chair
I light a match
I watch it burn
I call your name, echoes return
An empty room
An empty bed
An empty heart
So cruel those words I said
I am to blame
I was the fool
I need you here
To fill this empty room
