Empty spaces surround me now
Embers smolder in the fireplace
The pillow crumpled from where your head once lay
Noises sound out as if they’re from today - from today
The sun has gone, another night
All alone without you by my side
Chorus 1
The sound of you has gone
The smell of you has gone
The essence of you has gone
Verse 2
Candles flicker from a draft come through a door
The light crawls like fingers across the floor
The mirrors cracked from a lie it once told
Change the record before we get too old – we get too old
I’ve never felt so alone before
Rambling thoughts but your beyond the door
Chorus 2
The sound of you has gone
The smell of you has gone
The essence of you has gone
bridge
The weeds are growing up while the rain is coming down
A deception of the mind or an illusion of the light
With that fire in your eyes you’re off into the night
With a story to be told when you’re grandkids get old
But you feel so alone
Chorus 3
The sound of you has gone
The smell of you has gone
The essence of you has gone
The sound of you has gone
