House For Sale

House For Sale - Grant/Forsyth

The sign went up one rainy morning

Just a couple of hours after dawn

Taken time to peaked out through her curtains

Wondering what was going on

The neighbors said over coffee cups

That nice young couple is breaking up

Up up up

And in the living room the crystals and the linen

All packed and set to go

I tell myself once more I won't be here in spring

To see my roses grow

And all the things you tried to fix

The roof still leaks the door still sticks

House for sale

You can read it on the sign

House for sale

It was yours and it was mine

And tomorrow some strangers

Will be climbing up the stairs

To the bedroom filled with memories

The one we used to share

I know you've always loved that painting

From that little back stright shop in Spain

Remember how we found it when we ducked in

From that sudden summer rain

But I think I'll keep the silver tray

My mother gave us on our wedding day
