See that old, rundown house by the side of the road She called it home for years and years but that was long ago She used to sit in her favorite chair right inside that window Listening to kids and music and every sound that makes a house a home He loved, he kissed, he worshiped, he adored And her life ended when he left without using the door Now his suits walk on men he’s never met before But she slept in the same bed for two years more And with a new coat of paint it could look just the same As it did when we played in that yard three games of croquet Or when we pulled in late on Christmas after driving all day Or when we packed her up and moved her away
