Nina Simone - A Cottage For Sale lyrics

Our little dream castle with every dream gone Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn And my heart is heavy as I gaze upon A cottage for sale The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay Our beautiful garden has withered away Where you planted roses, the weeds seem to say A cottage for sale From every single window, I see your face But when I reach a window, there's empty space The key's in the mail box the same as before But no one is waiting any more The end of the story is told on the door A cottage for sale
