Roger Miller - Swiss Cottage Place lyrics
[Roger Miller - Swiss Cottage Place lyrics]
I turned down the covers on
A bed where two lovers
Found reasons to face each new day
In a room full of mem'ries in
A house built for love
On a street down in Swiss Cottage Place
And my mind just surrenders to all I
Remember's come to steal every moment away
Yesterday's gone and where I stand here alone
It's a hollow ringin' place called today
Last night I watched baby as she was boardin'
A greyhound bus back to St Louis
I couldn't let her know I knew why she
Was leavin' not after all we've been through
Slippin' my coat from my shoulders I said hon
It may get cold in St Louis
And the look in her eyes grew suddenly sad
She knew that I knew what she knew
So now my mind surrenders to all I
Remember's come to steal every moment away
From this room full of mem'ries from
This house built for love
On the street down on Swiss Cottage Place
A bed where two lovers
Found reasons to face each new day
In a room full of mem'ries in
A house built for love
On a street down in Swiss Cottage Place
And my mind just surrenders to all I
Remember's come to steal every moment away
Yesterday's gone and where I stand here alone
It's a hollow ringin' place called today
Last night I watched baby as she was boardin'
A greyhound bus back to St Louis
I couldn't let her know I knew why she
Was leavin' not after all we've been through
Slippin' my coat from my shoulders I said hon
It may get cold in St Louis
And the look in her eyes grew suddenly sad
She knew that I knew what she knew
So now my mind surrenders to all I
Remember's come to steal every moment away
From this room full of mem'ries from
This house built for love
On the street down on Swiss Cottage Place
