The Empty Bed Lyrics - Ryan Adams

All the things you thought made you strong 

Now make you weak 

The very same things that used to make us laugh 

Now only make us weep 

The very same things that used to take a day 

Now take a week 

And all the things that once were so easy to climb 

They are now too steep 

And all the things that once got me so goddamn high 

Now make me a creep 

All the pills and powers that my money can buy 

And still I can't sleep 

All that rain that won't fall from the sky 

That we cannot drink 

All those tears falling from our eyes 

Rolling down our cheeks 

Rolling down our cheeks

All the things that I used to know so well 

Now I cannot understand 

All the things that used to make me a boy 

Now they make me a man 

Every time I wake, I stretch my arms 

And I look for your hand 

I roll over and I open my eyes and I see 

The empty bed 

I see the empty bed 

Every single picture on your phone 

Just one less in your mind 

Every word you wrote while we sat idly by 

Yeah it's lost, somewhere in time 

And all the things that used to make you seem strong 

Now make you seem weak 

All the same things that used to make us laugh 

That now make us weep 

They make us weep

All the things that I used to know so well 

Yeah, I cannot understand 

And all the things that used to make me a boy 

Well now make me a man 

And every time I wake and stretch my arms 

Looking for your hand 

I roll over and I open my eyes and I see 

The empty bed 

I see the empty bed 

I see the empty bed 

I see the empty bed
