Haunted House

They say this house is haunted

But all these ghosts I've grown with

As it slips away from me

I still hold on hopelessly

I lay my head to sleep and say goodnight

Bringing up four daughters

Made a house a fortress

Dirty knees and honey bees

Nowhere else would sting as sweet

Can't believe we're turning off the light

And one day I'll drive past you

If I recognise you

I'll try not to stay too long

See the soil I grew upon

In a couple years I'll be alright

So darling, pull the curtains

And in the morning

Let me lie here with you

Don't say that I'm leaving

In the morning

Let me lie here with you
