a place where we used to live

this empty kitchen's where, i'd while away the hours, just next to my old chair, you'd usually have some flowers, the shelves of books, even the picture hooks, everything is gone, but my heart is hanging on, if this old neighborhood, survived us both alright, don't know that it withstood, all the things that took our light, you on the stair, i can see you there, everything is gone, but my heart is hanging on, once there was a little girl, used to wonder what she would be, went out into the big wide world, now she's just a memory, there used to be a little school here, where i learned to write my name, but time has been a little cruel here, time has no shame, it's just a place where, we used to live, it's just a place where, we used to live, now in another town, you lead another life, and now upstairs and down, you're someone else's wife, here in the dust, there's not a trace of us, everything is gone, but my heart is hanging on, it's just a place where, we used to live, it's just a place where, we used to live
