Tell me why

I cannot think of your skin
Without these tears in my eyes
I cannot picture your face
There's only empty space
No more you and I

Sometimes I think I hear you call
And hear your footsteps in the night
I cannot stay in this place
There's only empty space
And nowhere I can hide

So tell me why
You said goodbye
Don't tell me lies
Just tell me why

I sit and watch the children play
I see them run until they fall
And in their eyes you've left your trace
There's only empty space
And I can feel it all
