Lyrics

She held this same key
Opened this same door
Touched this same stair rail
Walked this same floor

He used that old wheelbarrow
Trimmed these same trees
Went down in this basement
His tools were all of these

She sat in this chair
Watched this same view
He sat there beside her
Watched with her too

Some things last forever
Like names in stone on a lawn
And memories become diamonds
When the lives and the things are gone

Read letters at this table
Where she wrote him in the war
Found them hidden in a candy box
He had given her years before

Their words told a story
Of lovers torn apart
Of hope and of anguish
Of never loosing heart

She stood at this sink
He drank from this cup
They danced in this kitchen
In this house filled with love

Some things last forever
Like names in stone on a lawn
And memories become diamonds
When the lives and the things are gone

I hold this same key
Open this same door
Touch this old stair rail
Walk this same floor
