Winslow Gardens

Ten minutes in Winslow Gardens Never noticed the views or the walls The whole world was closing We just took the keys and signed the line Old folks in the windows watching Rolling in with our rain-soaked bags We'd packed in a rush back home When always leaving meant always coming back Oh-oh-oh, some trips just go one way Oh-oh-oh, just when plans are made You find you've started all over again Ten weeks in Winslow Gardens Aired out and the mold is gone Back home, the toll grows higher It's hard to reconcile With the bluer skies Oh-oh-oh, some trips just go one way Oh-oh-oh, just when it seemed so safe It started all over again Far away across the ocean A small crowd and an auctioneer They're picking over the pieces of our lives But in this tiny apartment Sleeping like the dead through the night Ten years in Winslow Gardens A young couple moved in down the hall In the window, we're watching the rain Strip the last of the leaves For an early fall Oh-oh-oh, some trips just go one way Oh-oh-oh, just when plans are made You started all over You started all over again Ten years in Winslow Gardens Ten minutes
