Empty Vase Lyrics – Gwen Stefani

I was an empty vase
Just sitting 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 want to get trapped in
Like I imagine but it never happened
‘Til you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

Those seeds are in the ground
I pray it rains 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 trying to find
I know you’ll raise my sons right

‘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 want to get trapped in
Like I imagine 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 want to get trapped in
Like I imagine but it never happened
Until you went and filled this empty vase with flowers

Flowers, flowers
And giving me love
Flowers, flowers
