Robert Cray - He Don't Live Here Anymore lyrics

I still remember The day I went home The taxi dropped me on the street And I stood there all alone I saw a lady on the porch That I knew from years before She said, "Sorry about your father." From behind the closed screen door "Sorry about your father." "He don't live here, no more." "Sorry about your father." "I saw them close the hearse door." "He don't live here no more." Unopened letter Unanswered calls We were two separate men Behind our stone walls A chilled wind was blowin' A cold October rain And, as I stood before the house It was silently saying: "Sorry about your father." "He don't live here, no more." "Sorry about your father." "I saw them close the hearse door." "He don't live here no more." "Sorry about your father." "I remember that day." "Sorry about your father." "I saw them take him away." "Yes, I did." "I remember that day." "Sorry about your father." "I remember that day." "Ohh, when I went home, fell down on my knees." "Raised up my right hand." "And I cried please, please, please." "If I had just a little more time." Yeah
