Empty Pools Songtext
von Armchair Boogie
Empty Pools Songtext
The schools are empty in the summer
And the pools are empty in the winter
And if I′m lucky this year
My empty heart will recover
But it's the autumn of my downfall
And long ago was spring thaw
Seasons change while the tire swings in the yard
And by myself I′ll be okay
Find that inner peace of mind, hold on 'til the levee breaks
And the mailbox ain't full, but I′m still walking down that driveway
Making my escape ′til someone writes my name
Avoiding all the highways
'Cause the backroads fill my headspace
And the small towns frame a sad song in my head
But I′m picking a lot more these days
And singing like an earthquake
And this castle once of sand is now in stone
By myself I'll be okay
Find that inner peace of mind, hold on ′til the levee breaks
And the mailbox ain't full, but I′m still walking down that driveway
Making my escape 'til someone writes my name
Sure feels good being lonely
To be alone now feels holy
Left the door ajar for a heart that beats like mine
And these legs will carry me only to
Not backwards, no empty pools
I learned to say goodbye
Now I'm on my way
And by myself I′ll be okay
Find that inner peace of mind, hold on ′til the levee breaks
And the mailbox ain't full, but I′m still walking down that driveway
Making my escape 'til someone writes my name
Making my escape ′til someone writes my name
And the pools are empty in the winter
And if I′m lucky this year
My empty heart will recover
But it's the autumn of my downfall
And long ago was spring thaw
Seasons change while the tire swings in the yard
And by myself I′ll be okay
Find that inner peace of mind, hold on 'til the levee breaks
And the mailbox ain't full, but I′m still walking down that driveway
Making my escape ′til someone writes my name
Avoiding all the highways
'Cause the backroads fill my headspace
And the small towns frame a sad song in my head
But I′m picking a lot more these days
And singing like an earthquake
And this castle once of sand is now in stone
By myself I'll be okay
Find that inner peace of mind, hold on ′til the levee breaks
And the mailbox ain't full, but I′m still walking down that driveway
Making my escape 'til someone writes my name
Sure feels good being lonely
To be alone now feels holy
Left the door ajar for a heart that beats like mine
And these legs will carry me only to
Not backwards, no empty pools
I learned to say goodbye
Now I'm on my way
And by myself I′ll be okay
Find that inner peace of mind, hold on ′til the levee breaks
And the mailbox ain't full, but I′m still walking down that driveway
Making my escape 'til someone writes my name
Making my escape ′til someone writes my name
