Empty Handed
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well it took a while to catch her, you've been casting out a rod everyday now
And you are feeling kind of lost and you're are dealing with this loss, your heart is broken
And you're a winner and hate to lose but this time you got screwed it's a tough game
And it's very hard to see but you gotta let her be, her mind has spoken
You are begging her to leave even though it fell through
Going home empty handed, having to start a new
I'm on the other side come and find me
And you gave it all you got and it didn't make her stop, 'twas out of your reach
And you went the extra mile and you did it in style now its over
And you're begging, can I stay, I look after you
Don't let me go home empty handed to start a new
I'm on the other side, come and find me
One of these days
One day at a time
Out of your sight
Out of your mind
She left you empty hearted, she left you blue like the old songs
That run through your vain like a cardinal stain on your lung
You're begging her to leave, because it fell through
You're going home empty handed you're gonna start a new
I'm on the other side, don't come and find me
