Memories Made This House

(album: She'll Be Hanging Round Somewhere - 1970)

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

The chairs and the table standing in the corner it seems were always filled
With good food and happy people where laughter used to live
I look at the cast through tear filled eyes at the marks our baby's Nell
Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

This house would die without the heart we gave it you and I
It came aloud as a love inside me grew stronger as the years went by
The bed's still standing in the same old place haven't changed the way we have
Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

You can tell that love lives here and that's why we can't leave
The house is solid but we heard it crying when love left you and me
The clothes in the closet so tell the true stories like the linings on the shelf
Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house
Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house
Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house
