Lucifer – House For Sale lyrics

The sign went up one rainy morning, just a couple of hours after dawn
Mrs. Hadley peaked out through her curtains, wondering what was going on
The neighbours said over coffee cups, that nice young couple is breaking up
In the living room the linen and the crystals sit all packed and set to go
I tell myself once more I won't be here in spring to see my roses grow
And all the things you tried to fix, the roof still leaks, the door still sticks
House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine
And tomorrow some strangers will be climbing up the stairs to the bedroom filled with memories, the one we used to share

I know you've always loved that painting from that funny little shop in Spain
Remember how we found it when we ducked in from that sudden summer rain
But I think I'll keep the silver tray my mother gave us on our wedding day
House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine
And tomorrow some strangers will be climbing up the stairs to the bedroom filled with memories, the one we used to share
House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine
And tomorrow some strangers will be climbing up the stairs to the bedroom filled with memories, the one we used to share
House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine
And tomorrow some strangers will be climbing up the stairs to the bedroom filled with memories, the one we used to share
House for sale
You can read it on the sign
House for sale
It was yours and it was mine
And tomorrow some strangers will be climbing up the stairs...
