I turned down the covers on a bed where two lovers Found reasons to face each new day In a room full of memories in a house built for love On a street down in swiss cottage place My mind just surrenders to all i remember Come to steal every moment away Yesterday's gone and where i stand here alone It's a hollow ringing place called today Last night i watched baby as she was boardin' A greyhound bus back to st louis And 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 Come to steal every moment away From this room full of memories from this house built for love On the street down on swiss cottage place
