lyrics

[NARRATION]
One life ends and another begins
In a small house at the end
Of an otherwise simple street
A mother and father brimming
With all that a new home brings
As a young boy clings to pant-legs & things

Turn the key and let the door swing open wide
Sunlight streaming in, the floorboards come to life
Room to room, the little house on Drayka Street
The backyard weeping willow makes the thing complete

Peer out through little pools of light
Lord knows you’re a sensitive child
Peek round, your pretty flaxen head
A place you could call home instead

Grab a box and crack it open, gesundheit!
Paper stacks or crumpled hats and coats, oh my!
Make-way for the davenport and drapes, a cavalcade of shapes goes by
You sit alone and cry

Peer out through little pools of light
Lord knows you’re a sensitive child
Out there, it just might be
A place for you, swaying in the breeze
Hearts break and willows weep
And some boys are found hanging from a tree
So steer clear of dangling vines
And maybe things will be just fine
