This was a home, As good as we could have known The snow would fall all day long The birds in the trees, they sang their songs To the deer out back, who were never alone This was the place We once called our home This was the place We once called our home This was the road, Tunnel of black trees that led us home Up and down hills cut out of stone Lit up on both sides with eyes that glow It was alright, cause we took it slow From the weight of the place, we once called our home And these are some lines I was meaning to write, But i ran out of time Late last year when you worked by my side So i'll say them now Cause i can make them mine You're all that i needed To make it by In the place where we once Lived our lives In the place where we once Lived our lives In the place where we once Lived our lives
