The Landlord or the Guest

 



 

I DROVE BY YOUR HOUSE LAST NIGHT

I drove by your house last night
Saw your lights were on
I drove by your house last night
Shadows on the lawn
I wanted to be inside
To open up the door
But I could only drive away
I don’t live there no more

Tossed and turned alone all night
Thinking about you
Tossed and turned alone all night
Like I usually do
I wanted to feel your love
Laying next to me
But you’ve become a phantom dream
You’re not reality

It’s cold in here
It’s cold in here
There’s a burnin’ fire
But it’s cold in here

I looked at old photographs
Seemed like yesterday
I looked at old photographs
Took my breath away
You and me so long ago
With true smiles in our eyes
It’s funny in an awful way
How such a sweet love dies

It’s cold in here
It’s cold in here
There’s a burnin’ fire
But it’s cold in here

I pushed and pushed and pushed and pushed
Til I pushed you away
If I could go back in time
I would leave today
