Well this kitchen used to be a
dance hall
Music on and the lights off
Just you and I
Used to be
perfume on your pillow
New day through the window
Bringin' out the blue
in your eyes
Used to be
four boots by the front door
But two ain't there anymore
And now it's just
four empty walls
Where I lay my head and get
no rest at all
The porch swing don't swing
The doorbell don't ring
And now it's just
wood on concrete
And numbers on a mailbox
on a used to be street
I guess you or I should've
left when you did
The house you made a home
is now just a house again
These days
all I hear is an echo
of you sayin' baby don't go
And your goodbye
If you came back
You'd be surprised
You wouldn't even recognize
this place without you
What the h*ll did you do
'Cause now it's just
four empty walls
Where I lay my head and get
no rest at all
The porch swing don't swing
The doorbell don't ring
And now it's just
wood on concrete
And numbers on a mailbox
on a used to be street
I guess you or I should've
left when you did
The house you made a home
is now just a house again
A kitchen that used to be a
dance hall
With music on and the
lights off
But now it's just
four empty walls
Where I lay my head and get
no rest at all
The porch swing don't swing
The doorbell don't ring
And now it's just
wood on concrete
And numbers on a mailbox
on a used to be street
I guess you or I should've
left when you did
The house you made a home
is now just a house again
