|
Your picture's in the closet
|
Covered with a sheet
|
That used to drape our bed
|
|
And I can't find your glasses
|
On the table
|
Where you often sat and read
|
|
Your car's down at the station
|
And your clothes
|
Are in the cleaners being pressed
|
|
That's why the house is empty
|
Oh, thank God, your memory's
|
Finally gone to rest
|
|
Your chair is being covered
|
It had finally seen the best
|
Of better days
|
|
The kids put up your tennis racket
|
Now, nobody hardly
|
Ever plays
|
|
Your coffe mug is gone
|
And by mistake
|
The Goodwill people
|
Took your desk
|
|
That's why the house is empty
|
Oh thank God, your memory's
|
Finally gone to rest
|
|
Your memory's gone
|
Away from home
|
Finally, it's leavin me alone
|
Alone
|
|
There's nothin left to think about
|
Nothin to remember or regret
|
Now, the house is empty
|
Oh thank God, your memory's
|
Finally gone to rest
|
|
Now the house is empty
|
Oh thank God, your memory's
|
Finally going to rest.
