empty vase

Gwen Stefani

I was an empty vase
Just sittin on the counter
I was a dream erased
I lost all my power
Lies, lies, night after night
I couldn t see the hope
with the tears in my eyes
Then I watched the sunrise
For the first time

Cause you went and filled this empty vase with flowers
You showed up and filled this lonely space and now you re
Giving me love that I wanna get trapped in
like I imagined, but it never happened
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

Those seeds are in the ground
I pray you re in April
I ve been to church but you were the first
To show me what it means to be faithful
Why, why did it take so much time?
You ve always been the one I ve been tryin to find
I know you raised my sons right

Cause you went and filled this empty vase with flowers
And you showed up and filled
this lonely space and now you re
Giving me love that I wanna get trapped in
like I imagined, but it never happened
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

I ll grow with you and you ll grow with me
Love cures everything, I know it does

Cause you went and filled this empty vase with flowers
You showed up and filled this lonely space and now you re
Giving me love that I wanna get trapped in
like I imagined, but it never happened
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

Flowers, flowers
And giving me love
Flowers, flowers
