"Empty" lyrics - TERRI CLARK

TERRI CLARK
"Empty"
(Gary Butler / Terri Clark)

Maybe its been a little too long
Holding it in
Tryin' to be strong

It's funny the things we bottle up
Come streamin' out when you feel enough

There is a trust the cautious will lack
Now that we touched there's no holdin back

[Chorus:]
I want to call out for love until I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul til I'm empty
Empty
Ooooooooooooo

When only flesh and bone remain
I'll hold you close then start again
Feeling but a quick release when the ghosts are gone
From inside of me

I've tried to fight it but what can I do?
There's something deeper that surrenders to you

[Chorus:]
I want to call out for love til I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul til I'm empty
Empty
Ooooooooooooooooo

When I touch you, when I hear you, how can I, can I, doubt when every time I'm near you

[Chorus:]
I want to call out for love til I can't breathe
I want to stare at the truth til I can't see
I want to pour out my soul tim I'm empty
Empty, Empty
