Empty Spaces - Mary Gauthier

Silly me, what was I thinking

I coulda sworn you still loved me

But I’m a fool born to chase rainbows

I could never hold you to what you said with your eyes

You and me, hey, weren’t we something?

You’re holding my hand in that picture hanging in the hall

Well, I took it down after you left

Now there’s an empty space on the wall

Empty spaces ain’t nothing new

Rainbows ain’t something that you hold on to

They move out as the storm moves through

Empty spaces ain’t nothing new

Every day

I wake up and wonder

How will I make it on my own?

Silly me, what was I thinking

I was on my own all along

Empty spaces ain’t nothing new

Rainbows ain’t something that you hold on to

They move out as the storm moves through
