A Lonely House

A lonely house Waiting for someone to occupy it It is facing bog land And the farms behind An old lady lived here she stood By the window dreaming About the man who had promised To wed her But he somehow faded away Long after she died People said they saw here in Afternoon light Waiting As the house does now
