Empty House (with Okey Dokey)

You’re not home anymore

But I hear you in every creek of the floor

I do my best to ignore it (it doesn’t work)

But I feel you each time I walk through the door

I remember it well

The freckle in your eye, the way your hair fell

I remember every detail

Of your body and the way that it felt

Wish I could wake up and this was all a bad dream

Wish I could wake up and hear you say to me

I’m never gonna leave you lonely

Promise to be your one and only

You’ll never have an empty house

You’ll never have an empty house

You swore you’d never leave me lonely

Took a vow to be my one and only

Now I’m living in an empty house

Now I come home to an empty house

Don’t do alone very well (you know so well)

So I do my best to surround myself

There’s just no way to tell

What the future holds or if it ends well

Wish I could wake up and see you sleeping next to me

Wish I could wake up and have one second to breathe

I’m never gonna leave you lonely

Promise to be your one and only

You’ll never have an empty house

You’ll never have an empty house

You swore you’d never leave me lonely

Took a vow to be my one and only

Now I’m living in an empty house

Now I come home to an empty house
