We're clearing out the house where I once lived
And there's an empty room
That's bursting at the seems
With memories and vivid dreams
All the things we'd say we'd do but never did
I've been thinking back
To places that we've never been
And in this empty room a door flies open
If you told me you'd be waiting outside
Then maybe I'd be feeling alright
My hand gets heaviest when waving goodbye
I'll try
I'll try
I wish that I could be the photograph
You kept inside the frame
When you fell down laughing and you spilt your glass
And hung me up to hide the stain
With all these paintings that you're leaving behind
To never see again
They hang like postcards marked with your old address
You never thought to sign your name
They just read
My eyes are tired
And I've been sleeping well at night
I need something new to see
Let's play I Spy
I'll think thoughts of feeling well
I'll follow form and find myself
It's nice to know you'll never need
For anything
Let's stop and start again
If you told me you'd be waiting outside
Then maybe I'd be feeling alright
My heart weighs heaviest when you say goodbye
I'll try
I'll try
