House Of Sarah by The Hit Parade Lyrics

I had a lonely childhood
To the solitude of adolescence
The premature dignity and authority of the school system
I added a sad and grim strain of my own
Now, suddenly
It seemed as if I were given a brief spell of what I've never known
A happy childhood
And though I knew that the excitement wouldn't last
And that the moments would soon be gone
There was an essence of happiness in my life
And I felt what belonged to me
Long aftеr the autumn leaves havе fallen from the trees
Soon, it will all be over

You were never wrong, it was always me
And I loved your songs especially
The ones that sounded sad
Now I've changed my mind
Cause I'm growing old
Keep that 45 up above Brive Road
I'm going and I won't be back
But there's no one home
There's no one home
There's no one home
But there's no one home
There's no one home
In the house of Sarah

I'd still like to call
Just to speak to Mag
But the doors are locked
In the garden flat
And all the rooms are bare

So I've watched the sky
In the passing years
Now I say goodbye
I can't hide the tears
Thinking that there's no one there

But there's no one home
There's no one home
There's no one home
But there's no one home
There's no one home
In the house of Sarah
