[00:00.00]This House Is Empty Now (Live From HMH,Netherlands/2009) - Trijntje Oosterhuis
[00:14.85]These rooms play tricks upon you
[00:17.82]Remember when they were always
[00:21.47]Filled with laughter
[00:23.70]
[00:29.24]But now they're quite deserted
[00:31.62]
[00:32.20]They seem to just echo voices raised in anger
[00:39.01]
[00:41.29]Maybe you will see my face
[00:47.41]
[00:48.10]Reflected there on the pane
[00:53.12]
[00:55.47]In the window of our poor
[01:01.70]Forlorn and broken home
[01:05.16]Still this house is empty now
[01:10.79]There's nothing I can do
[01:12.70]To make you want to stay
[01:18.15]
[01:18.81]So tell me how
[01:22.08]
[01:23.23]How am I supposed to live without you
[01:27.66]
[01:31.98]These walls were lined with pictures
[01:34.87]Remember the glass we charged in celebration
[01:41.17]
[01:45.96]But now I fill my life up
[01:48.65]
[01:49.19]With all that I can to deaden this sensation
[01:55.79]
[01:58.51]Do you recognize the face
[02:03.99]
[02:05.02]Fixed in that fine silver frame
[02:10.04]
[02:12.37]Were you really so unhappy then
[02:19.23]You never said
[02:21.80]So this house is empty now
[02:27.06]There's nothing I can do
[02:28.93]To make you want to stay
[02:34.12]
[02:34.70]So tell me how
[02:38.21]
[02:39.24]How am I supposed to live without you
[02:43.72]
[02:47.13]Oh if I should just become forgetful
[02:55.43]When night seems endless
[03:01.15]Does the extinguished candle care
[03:08.08]About the darkness
[03:11.90]
[03:25.91]It's funny how the mem'ry
[03:28.72]Will bring you so close then make you disappear
[03:35.46]
[03:37.94]Meanwhile all our friends must choose
[03:43.65]
[03:44.39]Who they will favour who they will lose
[03:50.56]
[03:51.72]Hang the garland high or close the door
[03:58.47]Or throw away the key
[04:00.41]This house is empty now
[04:04.76]There's no one living here
[04:06.65]You have to care about
[04:11.87]
[04:12.74]This house is empty now
[04:17.11]There's nothing I can do
[04:19.08]To make you want to stay
[04:24.04]
[04:24.67]So tell me how
[04:28.16]
[04:29.17]How am I supposed to live without you
[04:33.32]
[04:34.81]This house is empty now
[04:39.06]There's no one living here
[04:41.09]You have to care about
[04:45.87]
[04:47.23]This house is empty now
[04:51.53]There's nothing I can do
[04:53.49]To make you want to stay
[04:58.52]
[04:59.29]So tell me how
[05:02.89]
[05:03.86]How am I supposed to live without you
[05:08.31]
[05:12.88]This house is empty now
[05:17.26]
[05:18.97]This house is empty now
[05:23.71]
[05:25.46]This house is empty now
