They say this house is haunted
But all these ghosts I've grown with
As it slips away from me
I still hold on hopelessly
I lay my head to sleep and say goodnight
Bringing up four daughters
Made a house a fortress
Dirty knees and honey bees
Nowhere else would sting as sweet
Can't believe we're turning off the light
And one day I'll drive past you
If I recognize you
I'll try not to stay too long
See the soil I grew upon
In a couple years I'll be alright
So darling, pull the curtains
And in the morning
Let me lie here with you
Don't say that I'm leaving
In the morning
Let me lie here with you
