George Strait - House Across the Bay lyrics

Walking down this lonely stretch of beach
She and I, walked down a thousand times
I just can't force myself to give her up
Like all the things she left behind
Gone are the days when I'd wake up
With her warm body next to mine

It gets cold here in the wintertime
And my mind drifts away
To that house across the bay
A long talk and a glass of wine
And we'd love the night away
But that was yesterday
In that house across the bay

Her laughter was contagious
Her walk, her talk
Her smile lit up every room
They say things happen for a reason
But, I can't find one good reason
Why she's gone so soon
Life just seems to hang on every thought
And everything we used to be

It gets cold here in the wintertime
And my mind drifts away
To that house across the bay
A long talk and a glass of wine
And we'd love the night away
But that was yesterday
In that house across the bay
There was sunshine everyday
And we'd love the night away
In that house across the bay
