"The Home You're Tearing Down" lyrics

The Home You're Tearing Down

I don't know your name
I wouldn't know your face
But you're right with the one I love
Out there someplace

You have an invitation
Feel free to come around
Come over anytime and see
The home you're tearing down

Once some happy faces
Would have met you at the door
But since their daddy's gone so much
They don't smile anymore

There's shattered parts
Of broken hearts
Just scattered all around
Come over anytime and see
The home you're tearing down

I'll dry all my tears
And have the coffee hot
Cause I can't sleep a wink no more
Time's all I've got

You see the price I'm paying
For happiness you've found
Come over anytime and see
The home you're tearing down

You've told how much you loved him
You can surely tell me too
I'd like to know just what you've done
To make him turn to you

I swallow pride and hear you sigh
If you'll just come around
Come over anytime and see
The home you're tearing down
