Tudor Lodge - The Lady's Changing Home lyrics

The paintwork is peeling and the wallpaper is torn The furniture is dusty but the atmosphere is warm He smiles and says, “It's all right if you are not alone” Coffee gone The night moves on And it looks like the lady's changing home Another room, another style, she changes with the night A new voice to wake her in a new dawn's morning light He'll give his love, she'll take it and for a while it's fun But every name Is just the same And it looks like the lady's moving home See what tomorrow may bring So many ties and strings They follow you See what tomorrow may bring So many ties and strings They follow you (She dreams a dream and wakes to tell of nightmares she has had He'll give her sweet, she'll taste the sour, now even he is sad) She'll hurt them when she leaves them and they'll cry for her return They'll say she's hard and cruel and one day she will learn But they don't see the pain that she is harbouring alone As she leaves on her way She'd give all to stay And it looks like the lady's changing home
