lyrics

As someone once said to me
a house is made with boards and beams
but a home is made with love and dreams
and fire sets the wood asteams
to both

I was only seven years
and flashing through the hopes and fears
my mind sets both my eyes to tears
when all the memories so dears
are gone

My home, My home, my home is gone
the flames mixed with the sky that dawn
and as I sat the grassy lawn
was no comfort to sit upon
