[Verse 1]
In this home I built for you
Empty as it stands
Once it shown a shining new
Crowning the empty lands
Shutters cast a distant beat
A shimmering glow of light
But you haven't been around in years it seems
I still drive by every night

[Chorus]
'Til then I stand and waited at the door
Too tired to listen anymore
If you were to walk in right now
I'd pull the curtains down

[Verse 2]
Watch the English ivy grow
And slowly take control
A memory many years ago
Reduced to rock and soil
Welcome home (Welcome here)
I missed you here (Missed you here)
I always knew (Always knew) you'd reappear
And when you're ready to jump back in
We can build a home again
[Chorus]
'Til then I stand and waited at the door
Too tired to listen anymore
If you were to walk in right now
I'd pull the curtains down
