Lyrics
SHE'S NOT THERE
(Verse 1)
When I come home from a hard day's work
I unlock the door and I look around
What do I see...? She's not there.
? * CHORUS *
? She's not there to be tender to me
? She's not there to love me
? She's not there
(Verse 2)
Where there once was love and a family
Now there's an empty house and an echo for me
She's not there
She's not there
? * CHORUS *
? She's not there to be tender to me
? She's not there to love me
? She's not there
(Verse 3)
I, who have nothing, until I met her
Now have nothing 'cause she's gone away
Even with all her faults, I still love her
Hey, I've got my faults, couldn't she except mine,
As I did hers. No, I guess not cause
She's not there
? CHORUS *
? She's not there to be tender to me
? She's not there to love me
? She's not there
