This House Is Empty Now Lyrics
Artist(Band):Elvis Costello
Review The Song (1)Print the Lyrics
(Costello/Bacharach)
These rooms play tricks upon you
Remember when they were always filled with laughter
But now they're quite deserted
They seem to just echo voices raised in anger
Maybe you will see my face
Reflected there on the pane
In the window of our poor, forlorn and broken home.

Still this house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how, how am I supposed to live without you

These walls were lined with pictures
Remember the glass we charged in celebration
But now I fill my life up
With all that I can do to deaden this sensation
Do you recognize the face
Fixed in that fine silver frame
Were you really so unhappy there
You never said

So this house is empty now
There's nothing I can do to make you want to stay
So tell me how am I supposed to live without you

Oh, if I could just become forgetful
When night seems endless
Does the extinguished candle care
About the darkness

It's funny how the memory
Will bring you so close then make you disappear
Meanwhile all our friends must choose
Who they will favour, who they will lose
Hang the garland high, or close the door
Or throw away the key

This house is empty now
There's no one living here
You have to care about
This house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
To make you want to stay
So tell me how am I supposed to live without you

This house is empty now
This house is empty now
There's nothing I can do
This house is empty now
This house is empty now

Review about This House Is Empty Now

Modern Classic | Reviewer: F | 7/4/2008

The Bacharach/Costello collaboration 'Painted from Memory' has always seemed to me very underrated. This particular song would have been a classic if Dionne Warwick had sang it 30 years ago but as it is not that many have actually heard it which is a shame.
