Did you know, did you know that I have missed you so
Ever since the day you left, but I guess
That's the way it goes

Did you know, that since you've been with him I've been alone
Thought I'd never love again
But I guess I'll just take it slow
I can't pray on empty promises

So I go to the hospital
It's the one she used to work at how odd
And they lay me down, on the life support
Everything is getting blurry now

Can't you see, all the heartache you have caused to me
Thought I'd melt in your embrace, but I hate everything I see
I still pray on empty promises

So I go to the hospital
It's the one she used to work at how odd
And they lay me down, on the life support
Everything is getting blurry then I hear
My mother scream, "But he's just nineteen"
"Can someone please explain what happened to my boy"
And the doctor says, "Ma'am, I'm so sorry"
"I'm sorry folks your only son is dead"
"His heart was filled with empty promises"
