This Old Place Lyrics

The sun is setting on the day
In the backyard I would wait, for my friends to come and play
Young and wild and fancy free. Was eating chocolate from the tree, the taste of life never felt so sweet
As the days go on, this place I once called home. Doesn't feel so sunny anymore

This old place is not the same, ever since you've been away from home
And I'm trying not to contemplate the feelings that I get when I'm alone
Cos this old place is not the same, now you're gone

I was staying home that night
But I knew it wasn't right
I drove and saw you for the last time
So we all went back home
In the backyard you once owned
Sharing all the stories you once told

This old place is not the same, ever since you've been away from home
And I'm trying not to contemplate the feelings that I get when I'm alone, when I'm alone 

How do you keep getting better, coming home like nothing matters
Nothing's going to last forever. Nothing's going to last forever
Holding on to something that is never going to bring them back and every little thing is said and done

This old place is not the same, ever since you've been away from home
And I'm trying not to contemplate the feelings that I get when I'm alone
Oh this old place is not the same, ever since you've been away from home
And I'm trying not to contemplate the feelings that I get when I'm alone

This old place, is not the same, now you’re gone
