"Empty Corridors" lyrics
"Empty Corridors"
She's got a little house in town
I sometimes go around, there
To see her
And she'll let me deep inside
I sing her love songs
But she'll turn them blind darkness
Like she ain't the sentimental type
I keep my heart in my pocket and I hold
I hold it tight
I know that she don't mind if I
Go away and I don't call
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all
I know that she don't mind if I
Go away and I don't call
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all
Through it all
Through it all
Her skin is softer than the bluest eyes
Just with the warmth that I need
Gives me a place
To hide from the streetlights burning through the bedroom window
In the shadows yeah there's loneliness we cling to
When the morning comes
We'll go, we'll go our separate ways
Ain't no magic my dear, ain't no reason to stay
I know that she don't mind if I
Go away and I don't call
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all
I know that she don't mind if I
Go away and I don't call
I know that she don't mind if I'm absent through it all
Through it all
Through it all
And we fall through empty corridors
And we talk in useless metaphors
Yeah we fall through empty corridors
And we talk in useless metaphors
And we fall through empty corridors
And we talk in useless metaphors
Only cause we're lonely [repeated]

Angus & Julia Stone - "Just A Boy" I bit my tongue in the ark of conversation.
I don't know why.
I don't know why.
I met you once and I'd fallen for your notions.

John Butler Trio - "Used To Get High" I used to get high for a living
Believing everything that i saw on my tv

There's nothing to mention, and nothing has changed
Still I'd rather be working for something, than praying for the rain
So I wander on, until someone...
Novo Amor - "From Gold" I'll hold, so near and cold
You've exhumed my love
And I'm sold, and our story will grow old
But you'll make dust from gold
And I'll know that your heart was once like mine
Watch the flaws unwind...
Iron & Wine - "Call It Dreaming" Say it's here where our pieces fall in place
Any rain softly kisses us on a face
Anywhere means we're running
We can sleep and see 'em coming
Where we drift and call it dreaming
We can weep and call...
