Lyrics
Empty Need
Words and Music by Jennifer Onesto Jennings
Copyright 2006
Once again I sit and watch TV
All alone with you right next to me
I know it don?t make sense, It sounds so damn crazy I got no defense but
What do you make of this life we lead
Nobody sees this empty need
It just fills us up but we starve for love we just starve for love we just starve for it
Pre-chorus: Oooooh
Every morning we wake to the same old thing
Go to work come home it?s the same routine
Nothing changes nothing shakes it?s a broken record but nothing breaks us
A glass of wine at least a beer or two
A little help to make me get into you
This disconnect will never follow through
Just hoping something will help me
Pre-chorus: Oooooh
Chorus:
Now sit back and watch the time
Speed past just like the traffic signs
On the road to nowhere fast
We keep living life stuck somewhere in the past
And when the memories start to fade
Looking forward seems like yesterday
Just wish there?s something I could do
Cuz I would love to fall right back in love with you
Just like the names carved into stone
Most seem to last but some erode
From all the pouring rain
Some weather the storm but some names fade
These sleepless nights they still bother me
You?d think I?d get used to how they feel
So I cover up and drift away
And wake up to the light of the same old day
Pre-chorus
Guitar solo
Vamp
(I know there?s something out there
I feel there?s something out there
Every time you look my way
I got nothing left to say)
