Lyrics
I find this empty room
Is more than I can bear
Filled with words unspoken
Walking home tonight
Every woman wore your face
I am haunted by your memory
I say these words to you
And they fall upon deaf ears
They echo off the walls
But there's no one else to hear
I'm calling out to you
Open my heart without a fear
I'm shouting desperately
But there's no one there to hear
Waking up alone
Your fragrance fills the air
It seems I'll dream of you forever
You were gone so soon
Never said the things I should
So many promises I've broken
I say these words to you
And they fall upon deaf ears
They echo off the walls
But there's no one else to hear
I'm calling out to you
Open my heart without a fear
I'm shouting desperately
But there's no one there to hear
Another tortured day
Things will never be the same
But I don't want to let you go
So now I cry to you
Trapped inside this empty room
And I regret those words unspoken
I say these words to you
And they fall upon deaf ears
They echo off the walls
But there's no one else to hear
I'm calling out to you
Open my heart without a fear
I'm shouting desperately
But there's no one there to hear
I sing these words to you
And they fall upon deaf ears
They echo off the walls
But there's no one, no there's no one left to hear
I'm calling out to you
Open my heart without a fear
I'm screaming desperately
But there's no one there to hear
