Lyrics
Why did they walk away
Left their house in disarray
Like a tethered dog
Left to wonder when
It's owners will return
Perhaps the Bank possessed
So the house it had to hear them
All the arguments
Over unpaid rents
And nothing left to sell
They left her
They left her on her own
To fade slowly
Fade slowly on the moor
But there's someone
Who'll surely come for her
I wish it could be you
Don't go wondering too near
You'll believe this daydream
Or maybe there's a ghost
Of a woman at the window
No reward for love
From the Lord above
So she waded into water
This house it's lost it's will
To shelter from the winter
She's a storm away
From collapse they say
A grave made from her cellar
They left her
They left her on her own
To die slowly
Die slowly on the moor
But there's someone
Who'll surely come for her
I wish it could be you
