the blanket fell from the window
and let the sun shine in
the hardest part of starting over
is where to begin
you wanted the world
but it was more than i could give
i fell short of expectations
but that's just the way it is
just turn and walk away
don't let me hear you say
that im an empty man
full of empty plans
you cant say i didn't try
im not an empty man
its the first day of summer
theres a cool wind blowing in
solid year of bad whether
is wearing me thin
the stories of my weakness
are starting to get old
go find the man i shouldve been
cos tonight its getting cold
just turn and walk away
don't let me hear you say

that im an empty man
full of empty plans
just because youre not satisfied
doesn't mean that i didn't try
oh im not an empty man
and i turn and walk away
dont let me hear you say
that im an empty man
full of empty plans
just because youre not satisfied
doesn't mean i didn't try
and someday youll realize
that iim not an empty man
im not an empty man
