Your coat still hangs by the door
Two cups on the table, one cold
I reach for your side of the bed
And the sheets fold back like a ghost
I keep the key in my hand
Like it might bring you back
But the lock turns slow
And the room stays black
Empty embrace
I hold the space
Empty embrace
Still call your name
Empty embrace
Nothing stays
Empty embrace
Just me and the ache
The mirror knows my face too well
Same red marks where your ring used to press
I trace the line in the dust
Where your picture leaned, then left
I keep the key in my hand
Like it might bring you back
But the lock turns slow
And the room stays black
Empty embrace
I hold the space
Empty embrace
Still call your name
Empty embrace
Nothing stays
Empty embrace
Just me and the ache
If you come back, come back whole
Don’t leave your shadow at my door
I can’t keep loving a shape
That never reaches for me anymore
Empty embrace
I hold the space
Empty embrace
Still call your name
Empty embrace
Nothing stays
Empty embrace
Just me and the ache
(Empty embrace)
(Empty embrace)
