Home For Sale

(dwight yoakam)



Home for sale

That's much too large

Too many rooms

Big ole empty yard

Far more space

Than the owner needs

Price includes

All the memories



Home for sale

Restored like new

Just a place

Two lives outgrew

A change in heart

Forces move away

Would like to keep

But just can't stay



Listen close and you might hear the sound

Of what you think is rainfall leaking down

The roof is fine

Set aside your fears

It's just a few remaining tears



Home for sale

Not all that old

A family's's dream

Stands dark and cold

Scenic views

That go for free

Of all the love

That used to be



Home for sale

That's much too large
