original text at lyrnow.com/1993184
Verse 1 (Thomas Parrish):
I can’t remember what called me to this place
Was it rusty worn-out windows
Or the sun that gave me faith
That something would happen for once in my life
The crickets sang a chorus to the sweetest lullaby

Chorus (Thomas Parrish):
There was something here once
I’ll hold on tight, like I’m still a kid
You were my shelter
But a house is not a home if it can’t be lived in

Verse 2 (Faith Zapata):
I’ve tried forgetting the look on your face
I think part of me wants to keep it in my pocket, just in case
Your softness in the summer was worth chasing over states
And I’ll keep making excuses for the love that you misplaced

Chorus (Thomas Parrish & Faith Zapata):
There was something here once
I’ll hold on tight, like I’m still a kid
You were my shelter
But a house is not a home if it can’t be lived in

Bridge (Thomas Parrish & Faith Zapata):
How long will I try to hold on?
You let me wait here for you too long
And should you care about what I want?
It isn’t fair, you were too nonchalant
Is this the place that I’ll never leave?
So many things that you let me believe
And is that question still up to me?
I think I want it to be, I think I want it to be (I’ll ask ‘til the end)
Chorus/Outro (Thomas Parrish, Faith Zapata, & Both):
There was something here once (How long will I try to hold on?)
I’ll hold on tight, like I’m still a kid (You let me wait here for you too long)
You were my shelter (And should you care about what I want?)
But a house is not a home if it can’t be lived in (It isn’t fair, you were too nonchalant)
