In Place Of You
In place of a brick wall you made a window In place of a dark hall you painted a mural Where there was only weeds you raised a garden And if I've failed to notice I'm sorry darling If you were gone what would I do? 'Cause no one could ever take the place of you If you should go where would I be? In place of you, an empty space for me In place of wandering blind you put direction In place of squandering my love and affection You built a place for me, where I could store it And I'm eternally grateful for it If you were gone what would I do? 'Cause no one could ever take the place of you If you should go where would I be? In place of you, an empty space for me There is so much from what I've gathered To put in place of these things you think you need In place of emptiness you put fulfillment In place of bitterness you put endearment Where there was only weeds you raised a garden SongtexteAnd if I've failed to notice I'm sorry darling If you were gone what would I do? 'Cause no one could ever take the place of you If you should go where would I be? In place of you, an empty space for me Aus Songtexte Mania
