[Lyric] The Widows Homes (Bright Falls)

[Verse 1]
There's a vacant driveway
In the house where we stayed
Empty rooms we've long outgrown

All the fables I wrote
And all the promises you broke
They linger with the walls stucco

Still waters reside
Running deep alongside
The reservoir that served us well

[Chorus]
Thought I could make you stay. 
But I can't, I never will
I'd lay that old hourglass
On its side, so time stands still

[Verse 2]
You'd come and gone so soon
Left us both in ruins
Foundations have torn apart
I've never been so alonе
Old souls in the Widows Homes
I see myself as onе of them

But what's the meaning of this
Without your maudlin kiss
Consider this your lullaby

[Chorus]
Thought I could make you stay. 
But I can't, I never will
I'd lay that old hourglass
On its side, so time stands still

Thought I could make you stay. 
But I can't, I never will
I'd lay that old hourglass
On its side, so time stands still

[Outro]
Thought I could make you stay. 
But I can't, I never will
I'd lay that old hourglass
On its side, so time stands still
