Karaoké House For Sale Lucifer & Margriet Eshuijs

The sign went up one rainy morning

Just a couple of hours after dawn

Misses Hadley peaked out through her curtains wondering what was going on

The neighbors said over coffee cups

That nice young couple is breaking up

In the living room the linen and the crystals sit 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 ones we used to share

I know you've always loved that painting

From that funny little 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

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 ones we used to share

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 ones we used to share
