Empty Hallways

words & music by Bob Malone
From Good People 2021

Empty hallways, empty rooms
Don’t feel much at home without you
Empty doorway, empty bed
I wake up, confused by the dreams in my head

Can’t believe you’re gone
Can’t forget, when you had to move on

I said:
Close your eyes
Don’t be afraid
I’m still here by your side
Just close your eyes
I can’t come along for this ride
Wait for me on the other side

Empty spaces, empty heart
All this silence tears me apart
Empty words, thoughts and prayers
It just hurts more when people pretend that they care

Can’t believe you’re gone
Can’t forget, when you had to move on

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I still see you
Haunting the shadows
Just out of view
I still hear you
Calling for me
Like you used to do…

I said:
Close your eyes
‘Cause wherever you go I’ll still be by your side
Just close your eyes
I can’t come along for this ride
Wait for me on the other side
Wait for me on the other side
