Lyrics
Stories to Tell
When the floors have been swept
And the shelves aren’t dusty
The clothes are well-kept
And the pans aren’t rusty
When the windows are shiny and sparkling clean
When the house smells so pretty
And the mirrors all gleam
There are stories to tell of the good times and bad
Of the ways that we acted
And the things that we had
Now the party is over, we’ve had all our fun
And it’s time to return to before we’d begun
Now we’re sleeping on floorboards and borrowing words
We’re running through hallways and chasing at birds
Having baths in the daytime and eating at night
Catching flickering moments of colourful light
There are stories to tell of the good times and bad
Of the ways that we acted
And the things that we had
Now the party is over, we’ve had all our fun
And it’s time to return to before we’d begun
The only reason to stay awake during the day
Is thinking of ways to enjoy the rest of our stay
There are stories to tell of the good times and bad
Of the ways that we acted
And the things that we had
Now the party is over, we’ve had all our fun
And it’s time to return to before we’d begun
There are stories to tell of the good times and bad
Of the ways that we acted
And the things that we had
Now the party is over, we’ve had all our fun
And it’s time to return to before we’d begun
