Description
the spare room..
lyrics:
my mother asked me where to put my bag
i said upstairs, she smiled
they'd put a desk beneath the window
the bed had moved a little to the right
the door still sticks in winter
i lifted it to close
i knew how much to lift it
without having to be told
they call it the spare room
i still call it mine
only in my head now
only sometimes
there's fresh paint on the doorway
where they marked how tall i'd been
they call it the spare room
i said it looks nice in here
my father made too much for dinner
and packed the rest for me
we watched a show we'd watched for years
i stayed till nearly three
i put the dishes in the cupboard
they had moved them in july
my mother said don't worry
i said i don't know why
they call it the spare room
i still call it mine
only in my head now
only sometimes
there's fresh paint on the doorway
where they marked how tall i'd been
they call it the spare room
i said it looks nice in here
she asked if i was comfortable
i said i'd slept alright
the house was full of people
who still leave on a light
they call it the spare room
i still call it mine
