I spent some time alone
in an old country home
where the wallpaper looked like a landscape
in a foreign land

I took some walks alone
around this old country home
and the landscape looked like the wallpaper
time's slipping away
time's slipping away
time's slipping away
in the rooms of this home

I saw the pictures of the family still young
and I knew they were all dead and gone.
