Empty moments, sleepless nights

Think about you every night 
Am                     F 
Wondering in what went wrong

What we had once seemed so right

Just as quick you?re out of sight 
Am                                    F 
You talk to me with words like moving on 


Am                          G 
Did it seem so simple to you? 
Am                                    G 
Was I just another thing for you to do?

I thought your head was in my space 
               C     
But now you?ve proven me wrong 
           Em 
But I will rise and be strong 
            Am                  G 
And one day soon this pain will fade

Simple lives just simple love

With your magazines and shopping trips

One day your beauty will fade
