She sold her house in outer suburbia where she had lived for many years br And she know that in months from now she will recall through the tears br The happy times she spent there when her children were young br There they laughed and played together and their nursery rhymes they sung. br br The old home to be demolished never to be seen again br And of a thing of beauty only memories will remain br To make room for a car park something ugly in it's place br And the landscape will look uglier without one familiar face. br br To get rid of her huge mortgage the one reason why she sold br And the house in need of repairs as most timber houses do when old br So she felt obliged to sell and to buy a cheaper house elsewhere br But she will recall her old home and the good times she had there. br br When one door closes another opens this so happens to be true br And she will settle in her new home and find happiness there too br Still the old timber house on Bayview Road in her memory will remain br And in her dreams she will be visiting her erstwhile friends again.
