He's just a man that has not seen
All the damn good done to him
And what a woman she has become
To live out to life of pretend
And the kids are ok
Maybe they won't stay but
Who's at the door, anyways?
It opened up wide the day they came
And the same day that we left
The walls covered pretty
And the pictures are smiling
But somewhere you'd find a hole
To detail again to when they know went well
This house is empty of soul
And they lived behind what they hide
From the other across the sheets
This bed is cold and has been for long
As they waltz into their sleep
♪
He's just a man that once spoke
But the words left him a heart ago
And what a woman has held him since
And love that has not fulfilled
But the kids are ok
They will not stay
The door will show them their way
Out there somewhere where they had once met
And said this would be it
And if a smile is all you hear
As a laughter did not appear
The waiting had done before they were one
Before these dragging years
And this kingdom does wait
In the corner of his every afternoon of the day
With the gaze of a woman that cares for the world
But a woman that has not felt
♪
We are the ones that broke them good
And left the love we understood
For you did love the man who has taken the hand
Of the woman my heart once knew
And we are the ones that were meant to be
Somewhere in those rooms
Across the street, we'd wave and greet
And well over to a love so true
For he's just a man that trades his days
For moments he had with you
And what a woman she was with me
As the dishes run so clean
The kids are ok
They did not stay
They shut the door behind them
Two souls are left in that emptiness
But this house will keep on standing
