Vacant Heart

Have you seen a girl
She's 5 foot 4
The last time that I saw her
She was running out my door

She had two bags
And that look in her eyes
That said that this would be the last
Time she'd say goodbye

But I wish there was a reward
But she took it all

Chorus
Everyone's a vacant heart
Why won't love move in
It's in the news that we all lose
When love ain't moving in
I only have these empty rooms
And they're all filled with space
And I can't seem to find much
Love in this place
And it marks a painful stage
And life turns me one more page
Now love ain't moving in

I put her pictures in a box
And now my walls are bare
The shadows that were once our things
Now seem to disappear

The boxes were once empty things
Until you filled them up
Now our heart is just another box
With no room on top

Now I stand with that look in my eye
That says that I can't take one more goodbye

Chorus
Everyone's a vacant heart
Why won't love move in
It's in the news that we all lose
When love ain't moving in
I only have these empty rooms
And they're all filled with space
And I can't seem to find much
Love in this place
And it marks a painful stage
And life turns me one more page
Now love ain't moving in

When absence makes
The heart forget
When memories
Bring her back instead

Chorus
Everyone's a vacant heart
Why won't love move in
It's in the news that we all lose
When love ain't moving in
I only have these empty rooms
And they're all filled with space
And I can't seem to find much
Love in this place
And it marks a painful stage
And life turns me one more page
Now love ain't moving in
