Our little dream castle with every dream gone,
|
Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn,
|
And my heart is heavy as I gaze upon
|
A cottage for sale
|
|
The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay,
|
Our beautiful garden has withered away,
|
Where you planted roses,the weeds seem to say,
|
A cottage for sale.
|
|
From every single window, I see your face,
|
But when I reach a window, there's empty space.
|
The key's in the mail box the same as before,
|
But no one is waiting any more,
|
The end of the story is told on the door.
|
A cottage for sale.
