When you left you said you would not be returning

Nothing here you'd ever want to see again

But each night you've come to visit me in mem'ries

And won't you be a little quieter if you can

Last night I heard you walkin' in the hallway

And your footsteps sounded like a marching band

And I haven't slept in so long I can't remember

So won't you be a little quieter if you can

[ fiddle ]

Well you're back again tonight out in the kitchen

I can hear you as you rattle the pots and pans

Oh what I'd give to see you when you visit me

Cause these lonely walls're driving me insane

When you're finished with your bath please close the closet

The dripping water sounds juts like a drivin' rain

Each night I'm looking forward to your visit

But won't you be a little quieter if you can

I wish you'd be a little quieter if you can
