Drove past the old house today And couldn't realize Whey my new friends couldn't see The home that I saw with my eyes Then I remembered that I hadn't Been there in so long And the things I'd seen And things I'd done Were memories that had gone They'd just laugh and call me The old senitmental fool I know they're right So I'll try to hide the pain Because it breaks my Heart to hear them say Tear down the house on West End Road It's been condemned a year and a day It's paint is chipped, the bricks are old The city says it's just in the way Tear down the house on West End Road It once was home to all of my dreams Back when we were so young and bold Has it really been so long Since we fell apart at the seams (Seems) Like just the other day I saw it the first time It needed paint, it needed work It was run-down, but was mine You wouldn't know it if you Went and looked at it today But that house hold the most Treasured part of my past, in a way
