Lonely They’re all away
And the house is still,
And the dust lies thick
On the window sill,
And the stairway creaks
In a solemn tone
This taunting phrase:
“You are all alone.”
They’ve gone away
And the rooms are barely .
I miss his cap
From a parlor chair.
And I miss the toys
In the lonely hall,
But most of any
I miss his call.
I miss the shouts
And the laughter gay
Which greeted me
At the close of day,
And there isn’t a thing
In the house we own
But sobbingly says: “You are all alone.”
It’s only a house
That is mine to know,
An empty house
That is cold with woe;
Like a prison grim
With its bars of black,
And it won’t be home
Till they all come back.
