The sun went up
on the rainy morning
just a couple of hours after dawn
Mrs. Hadley peeked out through her curtains
wondering what was going on
The neighbors said over coffee cups
that nice young couple is breaking up

In the living room
the linen and the crystal
set 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 warm we used to share

I know you 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 warm we used to share.
