Every room seems empty now since she's gone away The music of her laughter is a thing of yesterday The patter of her footsteps when she'd meet me at the door The smiling face I loved to see is gone forever more I see a cozy love seat when we used to sit and talk My tears fall on the carper where my sweet bay used to walk A dozen other women I might get to take her place But none to touch her sweetness none would have her grace When her footsteps pleaded from me it cut me like a sword A goodbye told me she was gone my baby I adore I see a cozy love seat... My tears fall on the carper where my sweet bay used to walk
