Performed by Dave Sturgeon
Locked away
In her room upstairs
Told him she don't care
Haven't talked for days
Rumours abound
They're all over town
As he climbs the stairs
He wonders what he'll say
chorus
House full of pain
Like the one next door
Can't explain
No laughter anymore
House full of pain
On a dead end street
Ain't it a shame
To sleep in a house
full of pain
Hides his tears
Till she's out of sight
Married 18 years
Never learned to fight
Tried his best
To raise the kids
Show them the love
That his daddy did.
(chorus)
Saves her smile
For a few good friends
She turns away
When he tries to make amends
Breaks his heart
He recalls a home
Where that welcome smile
Was saved for him alone
(chorus)
