Empty Rooms Lyrics - The Hands Of Man - Chris De Burgh

Empty rooms, childhood's end 

Forgotten toys upon the bed 

Dreams and memories are all around me now 

And I can see you everywhere I look 

But moving on is what you must do 

Find your way, be happy to 

Your world is waiting now and you need never know 

Of all these places that I go 

To hear the laughter and dry the tears 

Remembering all the years 

When you were growing up 

And every photograph can take me there 

We brought you up to be proud and strong 

And ready for anything 

Oh little child of mine 

What life can bring 

Empty rooms when I left home 

I could not wait to be moving on 

I never thought so much about those left behind 

But now I know how it has to be 

To hear the laughter and dry the tears 

Remembering all the years 

When you were growing up 

And every photograph still takes me there 

We brought you up to be proud and strong 

In everything that you do 

Oh little child of mine I miss you 

Oh little child of mine I love you 

I love you
