about

Marriage and divorce are both common experiences. In Western cultures, more than 90 percent of people marry by age 50. Healthy marriages are good for couples’ mental and physical health. They are also good for children; growing up in a happy home protects children from mental, physical, educational and social problems. However, about 40 to 50 percent of married couples in the United States divorce. The divorce rate for subsequent marriages is even higher. The song deals with this topic in an emotinal way.

lyrics

The trucks are loaded up with all our things
Yours will drive to Memphis and mine to New Orleans
And though you wish I would
I know that I can't stay
Sometimes a broken heart just can't be saved

There's an empty house standing behind me
I'm trying not to look so I don't cry
Cause if I do, I know I'll be reminded
Of all the memories we left inside

Chorus:
Scratches on the floor from moving chairs for family suppers
Half a can of gray from when we painted all the shutters
Holes from where we hung the pictures of our wedding day
When we made vows we thought we'd never break
Creaky wooden stairs leading down to Christmas mornings
A dirty fireplace that kept us warm when it was storming
There was a time we thought that we had everything we'd need
Crazy how time goes and changes things
But this old house still holds our memories

If those walls could talk they'd tell a story
'Bout love and all the pain that it can bring
And how I knew damn well that I'd be sorry
If I ever chose to walk away
From

Chorus

Chorus
This old house still holds our memories
