Empty Heart Lyrics

An empty heart is like a empty life
I said a empty heart is like a empty life
Yeah, it makes you feel like you wanna cry
Like you wanna cry
Like you wanna cry

Well you've been my lover for a long long time
Well you've been my lover for a long long time
Well you left me alone, for a long long time
I want my lover again
I want my lover again
I want my lover again
I want it back again

Yeah, ?????????
Yeah, a little bit darling
Take it down
Take it down
Yeah, take it down

Come on back to me baby
Come on back to me baby
Come on
Come on back to me
And I'll show ya
I'll show ya

That a empty heart means a empty life
Yeah a empty heart like a empty life
Oh it makes you feel like you wanna die
Like you wanna die
Like you wanna die
(I wanna die)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
