Living
with an Empty Heart
from
Never Let Me Down
It
happened once again
It occurred the other night
Could not have been avoided
But it gave me such a fright
I had the strangest vision
A terrible creation
A most peculiar artifact
Of my imagination
Oh I dreamed of an empty heart
It was only an empty shell
It was cold, so lonely
Dried up and dark
Dreamin of an empty heart.
Dried up and dark like
an old dry well.
Empty and hollow like a rusted bell
Well, I accepted my predicament
Bloodless, hopeless testament
Living with an empty heart.
It happened once before
But maybe I forgot
The feeling that the clock
had stopped
And put me on the spot
It was a scary premonition
A most unpleasant vision
Like living without oxygen
Or water in the ocean
Oh I dreamed of an empty heart
It was only an empty shell
It was cold so alone
Nothing there to hold
Dreamin of an empty heart.
Dried up and dark like an old dry well.
Empty and hollow like a rusted bell
With due respect to my lost innocence
I'm living with the consequence
Living with an empty heart. |
