Why did you remember? I really thought we lost it It was such a long, long time ago It was there before we moved I thought the former kept it It was such a long, long time ago Hiding in the leaves, we'd shelter from the breeze And the trees are going bare again The summers come and gone The autumn sings it song The winter won't be long So well make it last
The time when I came home And you were crying under the stairs I didn't want to know because I was scared A meeting in the kitchen My brother wouldn't join in To be honest I don't blame him He didn't want to know
The wreckage of our of past It didn't really last And the photographs and quiet kept us calm The memories often lie They wouldn't make us cry Just keep it all inside and try to forget
The TV's on but there's no-one home And I hope they will come back soon Cause I feel now that I understand And I know why we moved away But it's all good and well after all
Now everybody knows We have a new home And the telephone is not that far away So forget all what's been done Your father's still the one And everything is OK
I can just remember I was sitting in the bedroom And I felt all of this was too soon I tried my best to fight it And you know I won And I'm glad you stayed right here with me
