Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Shirts in the closet
Shoes in the hall
Mama's in the kitchen
Baby and all
[Verse 2]
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
But you're missing
[Verse 3]
Coffee cups on the counter
Jackets on the chair
Paper's on the door step
But you're not there
[Verse 4]
Everything is everything
Everything is everything
But you're missing
[Verse 5]
Pictures on the nightstand
TV's on in the den
Your house is waiting
Your house is waiting
For you to walk in
For you to walk in
But you're missing
You're missing
You're missing
[Verse 6]
When I shut up the lights
You're missing
When I close my eyes
You're missing
When I see the sun rise
You're missing
[Verse 7]
Children are asking if it's alright
Will you be in our arms tonight?
[Verse 8]
Morning is morning
The evening falls, I had
Too much room in my bed
Too many phone calls
How's everything, everything?
Everything, everything
But you're missing
You're missing
[Verse 9]
God's drifting in heaven
Devil's in the mailbox
I got dust on my shoes
Nothing but teardrops
