Animals Were Gone

Animals were gone – Damien Rice





Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone

It’s left this house empty now, not sure if I belong

Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song

I’ll do my best now, but you’ve been gone for so long


The window’s open now and the winter settles in

We’ll call it Christmas when the adverts begin

I love your depression and I love your double chin

I love ‘most everything that you bring to this offering


Oh I know that I left you in places of despair

Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair

At night I trip without you, and hope I don’t wake up

‘Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup


Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone

Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone

We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn

We could make babies and accidental songs


I know I’ve been a liar and I know I’ve been a fool

I hope we didn’t break yet, but I’m glad we broke the rules

My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through

I cover my eyes, still all I see is you


Oh I know that I left you in places of despair

Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair

At night I trip without you, and hope I don’t wake up

‘Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup
