Not for rent Lyrics

I saw you every day and yet

Was blind to who you really are

Could purchase every gift, it seemed

And still be so far from the mark

There were those rare occasions

Where you'd reach for my extended hand

Your touch, so unfamiliar

Like the shores of some forgotten land

But still we stumbled through it all

Like raindrops racing down the pane

Our end so clearly growing nearer

Yet, we persevered in vain

Exhausted by the pleasentries

That echoed down the empty halls

Un-phased by all the picture frames

That hung, so lifeless on the walls

Attempts at conversation left us

Silent, staring at the clock

With what would feel like decades

Spanning in between each tick and tock

So many wasted moments gone

With ample more to take their place

I will not let more pass me by

While I stare at your empty face

I take my leave without remorse

I'm thankful for the time we spent

The greatest lesson I have learned

My heart is not a room for rent

I take my leave without remorse

I'm thankful for the time we spent

The greatest lesson I have learned

My heart is not a room for rent
