Lyrics
I would rather not go Back to the old house I would rather not go Back to the old house There's too many bad memories Too many memories there
When you cycled by Here began all my dreams The saddest thing I've ever seen And you never knew How much I really liked you Because I never even told you Oh, and I meant to
Are you still there? Or have you moved away? Or have you moved away?
I would love to go Back to the old house But I never will I never will I never will
