Woorden: Warren Zevon. Empty-Handed Heart.

All these empty places, I try so hard to fill
Will I find another love? I pray to God I will
Girl, we had some good times, time does not stand still
It's rolling like a rock slide, down a hill

I've met someone I care for, I know she cares for me
Will I fall in love again? It's a possibility
But girl, we had some good times, that time cannot undo
No one will ever take the place of you

Heart jinxed condition, never sure how I feel
Trying to separate the real thing, from the wishful thinking
Sometimes I wonder, if I'll make it without you
I'm determined to, I'll make my stand
And if after all is said and done, you'll only find one special one

Remember when we used to watch the sun set in the sea
(Then I've thrown down diamonds in the sand)
You said you'd always be in love with me
(Then I've thrown down diamonds in the sand)

All through the night we danced and sang
(Then I've thrown down diamonds in the sand)
Made love in the mornings while the church bells rang
(Then I've thrown down diamonds in the sand)

Leave the fire behind you and start
I'll be playing it by ear, left here with an empty-handed heart
