This Empty House

Take me home

Back to the snow

Dead leaves underneath our feet

Before you had to go

You made my fragile soul feel warm

In that crisp mountain air

Laughing at my stories

With snowflakes in your hair

Remember September when I could do no wrong

But now I'm forgetting the feeling

Of having you around

I don't wanna lose this moment but the memory's fading fast

You made me feel alive and I can never go back

I swore I'd never love again

And I never really have

Sitting in this empty house of what we had

Remember when we snuck away in the fall

You made me take your sweater

Acting like you weren't cold

It smelled like your cologne

The only piece of you that's left

Kept our secret from the world

My guarded soul you undressed

Remember September when I was the one

But now I'm forgetting the feeling

Of having you around

I don't wanna lose this moment but the memory's fading fast

You made me feel alive and I can never go back

I swore I'd never love again

And I never really have

Sitting in this empty house of what we had

Those painful long nights

I still see that look in your eyes

You said you can't do this

I died inside

How did you shut us down so easily?

You'll never know how much you meant to me

I don't wanna lose this moment but the memory's fading fast

You made me feel alive and I can never go back

I swore I'd never love again

And I never really have

Sitting in this empty house of what we had
