Empty House - Sivert Høyem

Empty house

Sitting on a ridge

Shelter to the enemy

Meat surprise

Dead in the yard

And hanging on a dying tree

It’s your broken home

Every man alone

Is an empty house

Wolf wind blows

Songs on the air

That no human heart will know

Who are we?

We’re but a painful memory

Of our own undying love

A dry and silent tongue

Every man alone

Is an empty house

Is an empty house

Oh every man alone

Is an empty house

Oh every man alone

Is an empty…

Come, oh come to me

This empty house

Calls out to thee

Who are we?

We’re a painful memory

It’s your broken home

Every man alone

Is an empty house

Is an empty house

Is an empty house

Is an empty house
