This House Is Empty Now
Burt Bacharach & Elvis Costello

These rooms play tricks upon you

Remember when they were always filled with laughter

But now they're quite deserted

They seem to just echo voices raised in anger


Maybe you will see my face

Reflected there on the pane in the window

Our poor forlorn and broken home


Still this house is empty now

There's nothing I can do to make you want to stay

So tell me, how am I supposed to live without you?


These walls were lined with pictures

Remember the glass we charged in celebration

But now I fill my life up with all that I can

To deaden this sensation


Do you recognize the face

Fixed in that fine silver frame?

Were you really so unhappy then? You never said


So this house is empty now

There's nothing I can do to make you want to stay

So tell me, how am I supposed to live without you?


Oh, if I could just become forgetful


When night seems endless

Does the extinguished candle

Care about the darkness?


It's funny how my memory

Will bring you so close

Then make you disappear


Meanwhile, all our friends must choose

Who they will favor, who they will lose

Hang the garland high or close the door

And throw away the key


This house is empty now

There's no one living here you have to care about

This house is empty now

There's nothing I can do to make you want to stay

So tell me, how am I supposed to live without you?


This house is empty now

There's no one living here you have to care about

This house is empty now

There's nothing I can do to make you want to stay

So tell me, how am I supposed to live without you?
