Three Empty Words [MTV Unplugged]
This is, uhm, one of the really special songs
Something, a song that showed me how important lyrics are
When writing music
And how important talking about something that
Actually happened to you and talking about
Something that it's true to your heart
Makes it a great song
And that's why I love this
And I hope you do too
This is called "Three Empty Words"
I'll pick you up the same time
At the same place, the same old drive
We'll just talk about our day
To try to fill the awkward space tonight
We'll play the songs we used to love
While we try to fall in love again
And we don't who's wrong or right
But we don't even care enough to fight
We're going through the motions
'Cause we can't fix what's broken, yeah
And I know it's gonna hurt
But darling I'll go first
'Cause I won't keep on saying those three empty words
No, I won't keep on saying those three empty words
Though we're still talking everyday
I'm running out of things to say to you
What's really gonna break my heart
It's to have to tell your little brother
It might be easier to stay
But it'll never be the same, no yeah
And if something doesn't change
Then we'll keep on sinking further
Oh oh, we're going through the motions
'Cause we can't fix what's broken, yeah
And I know it's gonna hurt
But darling I'll go first
'Cause I won't keep on saying those three empty words
No, I won't keep on saying those three empty words
Those three empty words
We'll only make things worse
I'm tired, I can't take it anymore
Those three empty words
Will only make things worse
We tired, we can't take this anymore
We're going through motions
'Cause we can't fix what's broken, yeah
And I know it's gonna hurt
But darling I'll go first
'Cause I won't keep on saying those three empty words
We don't have to keep on saying those three empty words
No, I won't keep on saying
Those three empty words
Thank you so much
