How can a man
Lie next to a woman
A woman who loves him
And still feel alone
There was a day
I lite up your whole world
Now the suns hanging low
And the skys growing colder
I'll close my eyes
Pretend this aint a happening
I'll close my eyes
Those taillights i'll never see
I just can't bare
To see this house empty
As empty as the hole in my chest
Where my heart used to be
I'll close my eyes
So i don't have to watch you leave
You left your ring on the dining room table
You come home late
We don't even fight
Once we were lovers
Now i hardly know you
You turned down the light
Night after night
I laid by your side
I'll close my eyes
Pretend this ain't a happening
I'll close my eyes
And those taillights i'll never see
I just can't bear
To see this house empty
As empty as the whole in my chest
Where my heart used to me
I'll close my eyes
So i don't have to watch you leave
I just can't bear to see this house empty
As empty as the whole in my chest
Where my heart used to be
I'll close my eyes
So i don't have to watch you leave
So i don't have to watch you leave
