The House I Used to Love

High quality WAV, 64 bit.

I used to live in this house so long ago,
Where the grass greener and the children smiled
My mother's cupboards are slowly breaking down
The walls are closing in,
It's only a matter of time

We used to run and hide over here,
Where the staircase used to be
When we would call you family

We may be older now, and things have really changed
But I won't let these memories go to waste

In this house that I used to love
Where you would hold all our hopes
For now - it's time for you to be laid to rest
Oh, this house that I used to love
Farewell

If I close my eyes I can see it standing there
Awash with so much colour, bright and full of life
I miss the midnight walks, the smell of slow-drip coffee
And the way my father used to smile as we spoke about our dreams

We used to run and hide over here,
Where the staircase used to be
When we would call you family

We may be older now, and things have really changed
But I won't let these memories go to waste

In this house that I used to love
Where you would hold all our hopes
For now - it's time for you to be laid to rest
Oh, this house that I used to love
Farewell
