Time: 4/4 [Intro] | | | | [Verse 1] This empty kitchen’s where I’d while away the hours    Just next to my old chair    You’d usually have some flowers    The shelves of books    Even the picture hooks. Everything is gone But my heart is hanging on [Verse 2]   If this old neighbourhood   Survived us both alright   Don’t know that it withstood   All the things that took our light   You on the stair       I can see you there.   Everything is gone But my heart is hanging on [Bridge]    Once there was a little girl    Used to wonder what she would be    Went out into the big wide world    Now she’s just a memory    There used to be a little school here    Where I learned to write my name    But time has been a little cruel here    Time has no shame [Chorus]    It’s just a place   where we used to live         It’s just a place   where we used to live      [Verse 3]   Now in another town You lead another life   And now upstairs and down   You’re someone else’s wife   Here in the dust     There’s not a trace of us. Everything is gone   But my heart is hanging on [Chorus]    It’s just a place   where we used to live         It’s just a place   where we used to live         It’s just a place   where we used to live         It’s just a place   where we used to live      [Outro] (Repeat to fade)

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la nostalgie d'un passé partagé dans un espace qui, bien que vide aujourd'hui, résonne encore avec des souvenirs poignants. L'artiste se remémore les moments passés dans sa cuisine, entouré d'objets familiers et de l'absence de l'autre, soulignant comment ces souvenirs persistent malgré l'absence physique. Au fil des vers, on ressent une réflexion sur le passage du temps et la manière dont il peut effacer les traces des êtres chers, tout en laissant des marques dans notre cœur. Le changement de vie de l'autre et le sentiment que tout a disparu créent une mélancolie douce-amère, où la mémoire reste vivante malgré l'absence tangible.
