From the recording The City of Lights
Lyrics
I walked the road I knew so well
The old house stood where the moonlight fell
The door was closed the lights were dim
A voice inside said you can’t come in
The rain came down it lashed my skin
The years had passed but nothing changed
I called your name but the silence stayed
A broken bond that time can’t save
The house was lit the glow was warm
A home that kept me from harm
You turned away no time to wait
You left me standing at the gate
I hear the echoes calling
Through every night they fall
A voice that once was gentle
Now builds another brick wall
You said I don’t belong I’ll never find a home
These walls are not my own I stand outside alone
The blood that ties us both now feels so far away
And I can’t go back again there’s nothing left to say
The house remains the years roll on
But what we had is dead and gone
