Story Behind The Song
This is a heartbreaking song I wrote about a very difficult break-up.
It's not auto-biographical, rather it's written from the perspective of the other person in the relationship.
It was inspired by clearing out a house.
Song Description
A heartbreaking post-break-up song, questioning how the protagonists will fill the gap in their lives that the doomed relationship has left.
Production wise, the approach is of modern/contemporary pop sound, but a classically orientated and catchy love/break-up song.

Lyrics
Extra Space
(Lyrics and music by Gareth Ebbs, all rights reserved)
Stay with me
I know I'm not yours no more
Just want to feel you
Please don't shut that door
How did we even come here
What were we
Who are you...I don't know
What are we gonna do, now everything's gone astray
What are we gonna do, with all this extra space
I can't see you
You know it does no good for me
Just want to feel you
And scream just like a teen
Maybe we went too fast
When will we find the truth
I don't have any answers
And neither do you
What are we gonna do, now everything's gone astray?
What are we gonna do, with all this extra space?
What are we gonna do, now everything's gone astray?
What are we gonna do, with all this extra space?
What are we gonna do, whoah, whoah...
What are we gonna do, whoah, whoah...
What are we gonna do, whoah, whoah...
What are we gonna do, whoah, whoah...
repeat...
What are we gonna do, now everything's gone astray?
What are we gonna do, with all this extra space?
What are we gonna do, now everything's gone astray?
What are we gonna do, with all this extra space?
