Basement Song by Tapestry Lyrics

If you really believe that you won’t ever be smiling again
I think it’s time to leave, there’s nothing we can do
Keep watering those trees and you won’t be able to see again
How bold a man can be when he decorates his home
I know that won’t be me
You must be so lonely
I could never tell while down there in the basement
That elevated hell, must have kept the air too warm
When I see it from the street my mind rewinds then plays it back
You planted all those seeds, but now you’ll never know what you could have had
And all you’ve come to know wouldn’t have to be so bad
