wendy. thopliss - OUR OLD HOUSE

I stood outside our old house today br The place where i was born, br It looked so cold and empty br So lonely and forlorn. br br It had the same old window's, br It had the same front door, br And the gate we used to swing on br Still said number four. br br But somehow it looked different br Not the same as i remembered. br Probebly it was the garden br Which i could see had not been tended. br br In my mind i saw the inside br Of this house which once was warm, br But as i sadly stood there br My heart was being torn. br br Maybe it was the empty space br Where the old shed used to be, br We had some fun jumping off that br My sibling's and me. br br This loving house which we adored br When we were just mere infant's br Has been sold again, made into flat's br To accommodate our student's. br br I know they have to live there br But i wish they'd take the time br To love and cherish their new home br Which once used to be mine. br br If they only felt just half the love br Which that old house once knew, br They would treat it with more respect br And take a different view. br br But student's will be student's, br And how could they ever know br That they are living in a house br Which was so loved, year's ago. br br To them it's just a halfway house br To study and relax, br But to me it is the memory br Of my childhood, my past. br br But one day the student's may move out br And that old house be sold again, br Then maybe it will be filled with love br And happiness again.br br wendy.
