Josh Groban - Empty Sky lyrics

I'm not a rat to be spat on
Locked up in this room
Those bars that look towards the sun
At night look towards the moon
Everyday the swallows play in the
Clouds of love
Make me wish that I had wings
Take me high above

And I looked high, and saw that empty sky
If I could only, I could only fly
I'd drift with them in endless space
But no man flies from this place

At night I lay upon my bench
And stare towards the stars
The cold night air comes creeping
In and home seems, oh, so far
If only I could swing upon
Those twinkling dots above
I'd look down from the heavens
Upon the ones I love

And I looked high, and saw that empty sky
If I could only, I could only fly
I'd drift with them in endless space
But no man flies from this place

And I looked high, and saw that empty sky
If I could only, I could only fly
I'd drift with them in endless space
But no man flies from this place

Hey, the lucky locket hangs
Around your precious neck
Some luck I ever got with you
And I wouldn't like to bet
That sooner or later you'll own just
One half of this land
By shining your eyes on the
Wealth of every man

And I looked high, and saw that empty sky
If I could only, I could only fly
I'd drift with them in endless space
But no man flies from this place

Just send up my love
Ain't seen nothing but tears
Now I've got myself in this room for years
I don't see no one, I never see anyone
I don't see no one, I never see anyone
I never see anyone, I never see anyone

Just send up my love, just send up my love
Just send up my love
Ain't seen nothing but tears
I've got myself in this room for years

Ain't seen nothing but tears
Ain't seen nothing but tears
