Rosedale DayDream (Back in the Room)

Why did they walk away Left their house in disarray Like a tethered dog Left to wonder when It's owners will return Perhaps the Bank possessed So the house it had to hear them All the arguments Over unpaid rents And nothing left to sell They left her They left her on her own To fade slowly Fade slowly on the moor But there's someone Who'll surely come for her I wish it could be you Don't go wondering too near You'll believe this daydream Or maybe there's a ghost Of a woman at the window No reward for love From the Lord above So she waded into water This house it's lost it's will To shelter from the winter She's a storm away From collapse they say A grave made from her cellar They left her They left her on her own To die slowly Die slowly on the moor But there's someone Who'll surely come for her I wish it could be you
