Matthew Coe - The House in Her Memory Lyrics

The house in her memory
With its dusty floor and old grey drapings
The coldness in the air Filled the houses with emptiness
It's motionless yet still here
But she still liked it there
She kept in her dreams
That rusty old house
In her living memory
And picture it
When they were happy
See the running kids playing tag
And the picturesque sunlight that filled the open sky
Or those happy moments just lying in the sun
But now it's all empty
But she still liked it there
She kept in her dreams
That rusty old house
In her living memory
And picture it
When they were happy
The once great banquet hall now a wreck of soot and filth
And the Splintered piano where the kids would run and play
She could remember how it felt
In that once great ruin
But she still liked it there
She kept in her dreams
That rusty old house
In her living memory
And picture it
When they were happy
But she still liked it there
She kept in her dreams
That rusty old house
In her living memory
And picture it
When they were happy
