The Emptyness (Live at Hersheypark Arena, Philadelphia, PA - December 1977)
I spent last night trying to write to you
But the words wouldn't come
I just couldn't go on
And the telephone won't do

You know I'm sick and tired of hearing
"You're never home"
'Cause I'm sick in the head and this hotel
Beds don't feel right
And I hope it doesn't show
I feel a hollow down below
And there's nothing, nothing for me to say

And I feel the emptyness inside me
I feel the emptyness inside me
I have this feeling and I've got to get back
This feeling that I've got to get back to you
You know I have to get back to you, yeah

There's no one else
There's nothing else
There's no one else
I hear myself saying again and again
'Cause even if it doesn't show
I feel a hollow down below
And there's nothing, nothing for me to say
I feel the emptyness inside me
I feel the emptyness
I feel the emptyness inside me
I hope it doesn't show
I got this feeling that I've got to get back
This feeling that I've got to get back to you
You know I have to get back to you
I got to

The emptyness inside me
I have the emptyness
The emptyness inside me
I got nothing, no
The emptyness inside me
Like a hollow down below
Emptyness inside me
I have this feeling and I've got
I've got nothing to live for, nothing to give
But the emptyness inside me
Said the emptyness inside me
I've got nothing

You know I've got nothing but the emptiness inside me, baby
