Flowers from the neighbours
Cards on all the tables
You say it’s quiet here
I say we’ve had a year
Another empty corner
The books are all in order
It’s never been this clean
I guess it’s what we need
You spend time in the garden
Now all the leaves have fallen
I see the bench we built
You sit and watch the wind
And I come home to hug you
I ask what you’ve been up to
You say you’re better now
And that I’ve made you proud
And we can pretend
That we’re fine again
And we’ll stick through the thunder
Before the rocks pulled from under
Once more
We talk about the future
We fill the space with humour
And we’ll forget it’s real
I see the hope you feel
And I’ll be home for Christmas
The living room has missed us
And it won’t feel as small
Because you’ll have this song
And we can pretend that we’re fine again
And we’ll stick through the thunder
Before the rocks pulled from under
Once more
We can pretend that we’re fine again and we’ll stick through the thunder
Before the rocks pulled from under
Once more
