Three Empty Words

I’ll pick you up at the same time, at the same place, the same old drive

We’ll just talk about our day to try to fill the awkward space tonight

We’ll play the songs we used to love while we try to fall in love again

We don’t know who’s wrong or right, we don’t even care enough to fight

We’re going through the motions

‘Cause we can’t fix what’s broken

And I know it’s gonna hurt

But darling I’ll go first

‘Cause I won’t keep on saying those three empty words

I won’t keep on saying those three empty words

Oh

Though we’re still talking every day, I’m running out of things to say to ya

It’s really gonna break my heart to have to tell your little brother

It might be easier to stay, but it’ll never be the same no, oh no

And if something doesn’t change, then we’ll keep on sinking further, oh

We’re going through the motions

‘Cause we can’t fix what’s broken

And I know it’s gonna hurt

But darling I’ll go first

‘Cause I won’t keep on saying those three empty words

Those three empty words

Will only make it worse

I’m tired I can’t take it anymore

Those three empty words

Will only make it worse

We’re tired we can’t take it anymore

We’re going through the motions

‘Cause we can’t fix what’s broken

And I know it’s gonna hurt

But darling I’ll go first

I won’t keep on saying those three empty words

We don’t have to keep on saying those three empty words

I can’t keep on saying those three empty words
