lyrics

hang your head and hang your coat
leave your shoes in the basket by the door and stay a while
stay a while with me
I love this old familiar place
where I hold on to photographs and movie ticket stubs just in case
there are trying times for the nostalgic
did you only want me to decorate your walls with?
what makes a house a home?
is it love?
is it a place to be alone?
if everybody's gone, i guess i should be going too
i'll remember everything well enough for all of us
the beauty and the pain
tie the sandbags to my legs
put the boulder on my back
i'll bear the burden
i am sorry i can never keep my cool
i hate to wear the makeup
but i love to play the fool
these are starving times for the romantics
i've been living off the scraps of my memories
and fleeting glances
don't it make you feel alone?
everybody's going, everybody's gone
or am i the only one?
am i the only one?
