The Place Where We Lived

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
