That Old House                   by Richard Martin              208

 

I drove past that old house today,

Where we made love the very day

 We bought that old house, that you and I once loved

           

I stopped out front and got out of the car

Just wondering where on earth you are

I never meant for us to be apart

 

I thought I saw you standing there

With your blue eyes and auburn hair

But I guess I was dreaming again

 

That old house really looks bad

And without your love, it’s really sad

That old house that you and I once loved

 

You took your half and moved away

I haven’t seen you since that day

You left that old house that you and I once loved

 

If you should ever come to town

I hope you’d just drive around

To that old house that you and I once loved
