Searchers This Empty Place lyrics

There's an empty place, yes, beside me
When I'm walking down on the street
That's the place where you used to walk
The place where you held my hand

Now I reach and all I touch is this
An empty, empty place

Sadness and tears, that's all you left me
They're such bad souvenirs
Of a love that once was, oh, so very great
The greatest love, reaching all the way to the stars above

But now there's not a star left in the sky
And if you don't come back to me I'll die
Only your embrace can fill this empty space


Looking out and only seeing space
An empty, empty place

Sadness and tears, that's all you left me
They're such bad, bad souvenirs
Of a love that once was, oh, so very great
The greatest love, reaching all the way to the stars above

But now there's not a star left in the sky
And if you don't come back to me I'll die
Only your embrace can fill this empty space
