Empty Apartment

Packing up boxes and throwing out old memories, oh-oh
Something about this just doesn't sit quite right with me, oh-oh
We were just kids when we moved in, so much has changed since then
I know that I should be happy, but I just feel hollow again

Just like an empty apartment
Filled with old ghosts
Nothing turned out like we thought it
Was likely to go, ooh, ooh

Everything's gone and it's crystal clear
It's time to move on, but my heart is still here
In this empty apartment
Right back where we started

I guess somebody new will replace me and you in here soon
Oh, I wonder if they'll feel the music we felt in this room, oh-oh
Just this piano's all that's left, echoes of love songs play in my head
They spin around and around and the cycle starts over again

Just like an empty apartment
Filled with old ghosts
Nothing turned out like we thought it
Was likely to go, ooh, ooh

Everything's gone and it's crystal clear
It's time to move on, but my heart is still here
In this empty apartment
Right back where we started

Don't wanna say goodbye
'Cause it feels like the end of an era
I'll miss the way the light
Spills in through our small kitchen window

I know these memories will someday fade away
But part of me is always gonna stay here
In this empty apartment
Right back where we started
