Many years were spent here
Many years of laughter and tears
Etched on every corner,
Every wall,
Every ceiling,
Every floor.
Every brick of this house
Has its story
Every piece of furniture
It's own unique glory
Every knick, every scratch
Even memories of their tiny grey cat!
...yes I even remembered ~Beeger~ how's that?...
Many years of memories left behind
This old house is forever etched in their mind
Watched their grandchildren grow
Their family one by one
Memories will be held so dear
Now that the time to leave has almost come
As you pack things away and start to move on
This house cries out for one more song
You may leave
But you'll never forget
And neither will this house
On that you can bet!

Ma adesso, il ricordo
vivera sempre..."

But now, the memories will live forever..."
