The Empty Room - Ray Davies
作词:Ray Davies
作曲:Ray Davies
In a room called desolation
That resembles a Tomb
It's here we find our hero
The subject of this tune
He gets up from the table
He walks across the room
He looks out of the window
At the clouds of gloom
He turns and sees a mirror
Reflecting someone he once knew
He feels his nose and mouth and whispers
Who are you
No memories to haunt him
No ghost to exorcise
No pictures on the table
To bring sentimental tears to his eyes
The past belongs to those possessions
Obligations and the ties
Forced on him so long ago
Now he's waving them goodbye
And he doesn't feel pathetic
He's not such a loser after all
That empty room can't torture him
'Cos he's dispossessed it all
Everybody needs an empty room
Nostalgic memories they'll drive you to doom
Lose all of those attachments
Start again and very soon
You'll find yourself just thinking
Of the life in front of you
Be happy and contented
In that empty room
Everybody needs an empty room
Those nostalgic memories
They'll drive you to doom
Lose all of those attachments
Start again and very soon
You'll find yourself just thinking
Of the life in front of you
Be happy and contented
In that empty room
