Empty Rooms

Empty room, you've only four barren walls
Empty room, you and I alone, that's all
We remain from a house that was a home
Why did she have to leave us, empty room, all alone?

Empty room, hasn't always been like this
Empty room, once was filled with happiness
And a smile from a heart that once was true
Since it's gone to love another, empty room, there's only you

Empty room, how it echoes when I cry
Empty room, seems so dark and cold tonight
Since she left, all the warmth of life is gone
And we shiver in the darkness, empty room, all alone

Empty room, and the clock's striking three
Empty room, each night seems eternity
How I pray that the Lord will let me die
And let death take me forever from this empty room of mine
