verse:
I was feeling pretty good today
till you called me up to say
you sold the house and now it’s time
to come over and get what’s mine

I drove the car but it already knew
every turn to get back to you
and my heart broke like a brittle old bone
in the dust that’s been thrown

Chorus:
standing here in our old place
wood stacked by the fireplace
every room reminds me of you
kitchen where we sat to eat
backyard grass in our bare feet
bedroom where we laid our heads
dreaming next to you
empty now
empty now

verse:
there’s boxes stacked that bear my name
memories packed away like shame
and the stories that I won’t ever tell
dreams we built, dreams that fell

BRIDGE
weekends in the mountains
coyotes and the stars
toasting them with whiskey and cigars
I didn’t see it coming
never thought we’d change
now every day without you feels so strange

Solo:
verse:
I was feeling pretty good today
till you called me up to say
you sold the house and now it’s time
to come over and get what’s mine
