A Place Where We Used To Live Lyrics - Mark Knopfler

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 

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

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 

It's just a place where 

We used to live 

It's just a place where 

We used to live 

Photos 

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 

It's just a place where 

We used to live 

It's just a place where 

We used to live
