lyrics

The chair I love still sits outside
And it’s covered all in dirt
The lawn looks as dry as the forecast
The windows still don’t lock
‘Cause they’re a little off the track
Crooked keepers of the stories of our past
I drove by the old house today

I drove by the old house today
And all I could see was you
In the peeling paint and number on the door
I try but I can’t keep away
And my heart’s all black and blue
What do I keep going back for

The screen door slams
Like it did on us a million times
It reminds me how we never fixed the spring
It kept falling by the wayside
We pretended not to see
Let it slide like so many other things
I drove by the old house today

Chorus

I watched the dust rise up
Through the cracks in the floor
That we could never keep clean
If we’d knuckled down
A little bit more
Could we have mended all the seams

Chorus
