Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone It's left this house empty now, not sure if I belong Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song I'll do my best now, but you've been gone for so long The window's open now and the winter settles in We'll call it Christmas when the adverts begin I love your depression and I love your double chin I love 'most everything that you bring to this offering Oh I know that I left you in places of despair Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair At night I trip without you, and hope I don't wake up 'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn We could make babies and accidental songs I know I've been a liar and I know I've been a fool I hope we didn't break yet, but I'm glad we broke the rules My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through I cover my eyes, still all I see is you Oh I know that I left you in places of despair Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair At night I trip without you, and hope that I don't wake up 'Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

There is a life I lead in this city Hurrying to cut my teeth I can take what I need to get by Doesn't make it easy The other piece of my heart is slow Somewhere in the great unknown When I return from the afterglow Will you carry me like I am whole again? Wait Hold on Put me together Take me back where I belong I want it all I had a feeling but the feeling is all gone Wait Hold on Put me together Take me back where I belong I want it all I had a feeling but the feeling is all gone (The feeling is all gone) (The feeling is all gone) If I could take you back to my youth Show you what I wish I knew My will is strong with a place to lead In the moment I hung disbelief The other ring on my wrist is gold Fairing with the lie we pulled When I return from my spinning dome I'm rememberin' the words you told me Wait Hold on Put me together Take me back where I belong I want it all I had a feeling but the feeling is all gone Wait Hold on Put me together Take me back where I belong I want it all I had a feeling but the feeling is all gone (The feeling is all gone) (The feeling is all gone) (The feeling is all gone) Ooh ooh Ooh ooh Ooh ooh Ooh ooh

I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by; But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die..., Oh Lord! And then I jumped in the river, but the doggone river was dry. She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. I had me a woman who couldn't be true. She made me for my money and she made me blue. A man needs a woman that he can lean on, But my leanin' post is done left and gone. She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. I'm gonna find me a river, one that's cold as ice. And when I find me that river, Lord I'm gonna pay the price, Oh Lord! I'm goin' down in it three times, but Lord I'm only comin up twice. She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue. She told me on Sunday she was checkin' me out; Long about Monday she was nowhere about. And here it is Tuesday, ain't had no news. I got them gone but not forgotten blues. She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع
