shutters and boards cover the windows
of the house where we used to live
shutters and boards cover the windows
of the house where we used to live
all i have left is a heart full of sorrow
since she said she’d never forgive
the house that we built was once filled with laughter
but i changed that laughter to tears
and now i live in a world without sunshine
oh how i wish you were here
last night i dreamed that you came to our house
to take an old book from the shelf
if you’ll open the shutters i’ll tear down the boards
’cause i drove every nail by myself
one more time
shutters and boards
