Empty Spaces Lyrics

I still hear your laughter, echoes in the hall,

But the silence grows louder when night starts to fall.

Your sweater's in the closet, your picture on the shelf,

I keep holding on, though I'm losing myself.

And I try to move on, but the past won't let go,

Every corner I turn is a shadow of you.

These empty spaces, they're haunting me tonight,

Everywhere I go, I feel you by my side.

The air is heavy, the world's grown cold,

I'm missing the warmth of the hand I used to hold.

I drive through the city, to places we knew,

But the memories sting when they're missing you.

The lights blur like teardrops, the songs cut too deep,

I'm awake in this nightmare, but I'm begging for sleep.

And I pray for a sign, just a glimpse of your face,

But I'm chasing a ghost in an empty embrace.

These empty spaces, they're haunting me tonight,

Everywhere I go, I feel you by my side.

The air is heavy, the world's grown cold,

I'm missing the warmth of the hand I used to hold.

If I could turn back the clocks, I'd fight for one more day,

To hear your voice, to see your smile, to make the pain go away.

But time's a thief, and it's taken you,

Now all I have are memories to hold on to.

The stars are out, but they don't shine the same,

Every flicker reminds me I've lost the flame.

These empty spaces will never be whole,

But I'll carry your memory carved in my soul.
