James Gooch - This House Lyrics

This house never felt so lonely
This house never kept me in
I don't know how to explain it
But I'm sitting here on the floor again
This house never felt so restless
Nostalgia cursing through my veins
I didn't think I could make it
So I came and took shelter from the rain
A voice echoes down from the chimney
Swirls above my head
The past is a fickle mistress
The present is the love of your life
This house
This house never felt so broken
To my discerning eyes
But in amidst the confusion
I'd tailored my own demise
This house never looked so faded
Nor my mind so run down
I don't know how to explain it
But it ain't how I remember it somehow
This house is in my heart again
This house never looked so dark
The shelves are bare and shadows hang
In the mirror I can see
The shadow of a different man
This house is in my heart again
This house
