Mel Tillis - Memories Made This House lyrics

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

The chairs and the table standing in the corner it seems were always filled

With good food and happy people where laughter used to live

I look at the cast through tear filled eyes at the marks our baby's Nell

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

This house would die without the heart we gave it you and I

It came aloud as a love inside me grew stronger as the years went by

The bed's still standing in the same old place haven't changed the way we have

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

[ piano ]

You can tell that love lives here and that's why we can't leave

The house is solid but we heard it cryin' when love left you and me

The clothes in the closet so tell the true stories like the linings on the shelf

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house

Everywhere there's a memory mem'ries made this house
