MARK KNOPFLER lyrics : "A Place Where We Used To Live"

This empty kitchen's where
I'd while away the hours
Just next to my old chair

You'd usually have some flowers
The shelves of books
Even the picture hooks

Everything is gone
But my heart is hanging on


If this old neighbourhood
Survived us both alright
Don't know that it withstood

All the things that took our light
You on the stair
I can see you there

Everything is gone
But my heart is hanging on


Once there was a little girl
Used to wonder what she would be
Went out into the big wide world

Now she's just a memory
There used to be a little school here
Where I learned to write my name

But time has been a little cruel here
Time has no shame


It's just a place where
We used to live
It's just a place where

We used to live

Now in another town

You lead another life
And now upstairs and down
You're someone else's wife

Here in the dust
There's not a trace of us
Everything is gone

But my heart is hanging on

It's just a place where

We used to live
It's just a place where
We used to live
