Empty Box Blues

I heard what you said
It’s just that I don’t believe a word
Of what people say
I’m not even sure I heard

I don’t remember your face
But I can still recall your name
What else do you know
Or do you even wonder

That’s all I want you to do
Now this really couldn’t be so hard for you

We could go for a walk
We might see some things or talk
About all our friends
And all the funny places

Or I’ll sing you a song
But all my words sound funny
But they can take you along
‘cause you ain’t got no money

That’s all I think we should do
It really shouldn’t be so hard for you

We could go for a ride
Down to the ocean watch the tide
Come rolling in
‘cause it ain’t got nowhere else to go

Hey that’s a pretty lonely thing
But I don’t know if it’s a good enough reason to start to sing

I heard what you said
It’s just that I don’t believe a word
