Three Empty Words (MTV Unplugged)

This is, uh, one of those really special songs

Something, uh, a song that showed me how important lyrics are when writing music

And how important talking about something that actually happened to you

And talking about something that is true to your heart makes a great song and that's why I love this

And I hope you do too, this is called Three Empty Words






I'll pick you up at the same time

At the same place, the same old drive

We'll just talk about our day

To try to fill the awkward space tonight

We'll play the songs we used to love

While we try to fall in love again

We don't know who's wrong or right

We don't even care enough to fight






We're going through the motions

Cause we can't fix what's broken, yeah

And I know it's gonna hurt

But darling I'll go first

Cause I won't keep on saying those three empty words

No, I won't keep on saying those three empty words






We're still talking everyday

I'm running out of things to say to ya

What's really gonna break my heart

Is to have to tell your little brother

And it might be easier to stay

But it'll never be the same, no, yeah

And if something doesn't change

Then we'll keep on sinking further






Woah, we're going through the motions

Cause we can't fix what's broken, yeah

And I know it's gonna hurt

But darling I'll go first

Cause I won't keep on saying those three empty words

No I won't keep on saying those three empty words






Those three empty words

Will only make things worse

I'm tired, I can't take this anymore

Those three empty words

Will only make things worse

We're tired, we can't take this anymore






We're going through motions

Cause we can't fix what's broken, yeah

And I know it's gonna hurt

But darling I'll go first

Cause I won't keep on saying those three empty words

We don't have to keeping on saying those three empty words

No I won't keep on saying those three empty words






Thank you so much
