Lyrics
I’m Keeping An Empty Box VERSE 1 I looked in my closet for something I couldn’t find Dust had settled over memories I’d left behind When I was looking the other way, I saw it sitting there I touched it, felt it, waiting…waiting just to share CHORUS I’ve been keeping an empty box on a shelf inside my heart I never meant to keep it here, open and set apart What’s inside this empty box that’s been singing a silent song? Waiting for someone to listen to my heart all along VERSE 2 This closet hides a lot of things – masking tape and a corded phone Just like the space inside of me – they’re things I didn’t own I’ve forgotten all about them along with love and time To see them with the memories brings a tear to my eye CHORUS BRIDGE Boxes full of empty spaces, filled with laughter now empty faces Smiling now, begin the traces of love that fills the empty spaces VERSE 3 I’ve forgotten how much of this closet I’ve never seen Never take a look around or even had time to clean A broken sewing machine lies in an empty space Its broken wheel reflects… reflects a certain face Of a little child who wanted to be loved Now you’re here in my arms sent from up above CHORUS 3 I’ve filled the empty box that was inside my heart Hope gives way to something more, open and set apart What’s inside this empty box that’s been singing a silent song? Waiting for someone to listen to my heart all along
