Empty Spirits

The Madden Brothers

Scanning the bar, just empty spirits
Turn to say hi, nobody hears it
Terrible lights, but they got good music here

Feeling so strange from a night with a stranger
Bent a few rules but never found danger
Missing the nights when we used to sit right here

I’m still waiting, same old playlist,
I can’t take this song
When Lilac Wine comes on
I lose it, damn this music
Why’s that feeling gone
When Lilac Wine comes on

The first time we met, I still remember
You sitting alone one night in December
But it wasn’t cold, cause they got good weather here.

So we drove downtown to a place we had heard of
Waited in line, even though it was empty
You said it’s a dive, but they play good music here.

I’m still waiting, same old playlist,
I can’t take this song
When Lilac Wine comes on
I lose it, damn this music
Why’s that feeling gone
When Lilac Wine comes on, comes on

I’m still waiting, same old playlist,
I can’t take this song
When Lilac Wine comes on
I lose it, damn this music
Why’s that feeling gone
When Lilac Wine comes on
Comes on, comes on
