In There
no one ever sits in the sitting room
they only go in there to dust and run the vacuum
once a year a tree goes up and the lights go on
but no one really goes in there
no one fires up that old fireplace
but it sure does look inviting, and it fills up the space
just above hangs a painting of
two kids in love
but no one's building fires in there
the silver is sterling, the china is bone
locked away in the hutch by the rotary phone
i say tonight, it'd be good for us both
to turn this house upside down and back into a home
and just let go
no one ever plays that old piano
it's just a surface for pictures and candles
we sometimes give a chord a try
as we walk by
but no one's playing songs in there
the silver is sterling, the china is bone
locked away in the hutch by the rotary phone
i say tonight, it'd be good for us both
to turn this house upside down and back into a home
and just let go
no one ever sits in the sitting room
they only go in there to dust and run the vacuum
they only go in there to dust and run the vacuum
once a year a tree goes up and the lights go on
but no one really goes in there
no one fires up that old fireplace
but it sure does look inviting, and it fills up the space
just above hangs a painting of
two kids in love
but no one's building fires in there
the silver is sterling, the china is bone
locked away in the hutch by the rotary phone
i say tonight, it'd be good for us both
to turn this house upside down and back into a home
and just let go
no one ever plays that old piano
it's just a surface for pictures and candles
we sometimes give a chord a try
as we walk by
but no one's playing songs in there
the silver is sterling, the china is bone
locked away in the hutch by the rotary phone
i say tonight, it'd be good for us both
to turn this house upside down and back into a home
and just let go
no one ever sits in the sitting room
they only go in there to dust and run the vacuum
