empty corridors lyrics

She's got a little house in town

I sometimes go around, there

To see her

And she let me deep inside

I sing her love songs

But she'll turn a blind eye

'Cause she ain't the sentimental type

I keep my heart in my pocket and I hold

I hold it tight

I know that she don't mind if I

Go away and I don't call

I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all

I know that she don't mind if I

Go away and I don't call

I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all

Through it all

Through it all

Her skin is softer than the bluest eyes

Mmmm, with the warmth that I need

Gives me a place

To hide

From the streetlights burning through the bedroom window

Oh honey, shadows, yeah there's loneliness we cling to

When the morning comes

We'll go, we'll go our separate ways, here

Ain't no magic, my dear, ain't no reason to stay

I know that she don't mind if I,

Go away and I don't call

I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all

I know that she don't mind if I,

Go away and I don't call

I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all

Through it all

Through it all

And we fall through empty corridors

And we talk in our useless metaphors

Yeah we fall through empty corridors

And we talk in our useless metaphors

And we fall through empty corridors

And we talk in our useless metaphors

Only 'cause we're lonely,

Only 'cause we're lonely

Only 'cause we're lonely

Only 'cause we're lonely

Only lonely

Only lonely

Only 'cause we're lonely

No, no, no, no

Only 'cause we're lonely

Lonely here

Lonely

Lonely here
