The House Still Knows My Name - LUNA VALE
Ooh
the house still knows
my name
The door was smaller than I remembered
The stairs still made the same old sound
There was a mark beside the hallway
where they used to measure me down
The afternoon came through the curtains
like it had never learned to change
I stood there older than the silence
but the house still knew my name
I have been so many places
I have worn so many faces
But one old room can look at me
like I never had to explain it
The house still knows my name
even when I don't feel the same
I do not need to live there again
I just need to know it stayed
The house still knows my name
it remembers what I became from
When I forget who I used to be
that old place remembers enough
The wall kept holding little scratches
The kitchen light was almost gone
I heard a voice inside the distance
asking why I stayed out so long
I used to leave without looking
thinking everything waits behind
Now I return like someone asking
if I can borrow back some time
Maybe home is not a place
that keeps you from the rain
Maybe home is where some part of you
is still allowed to stay
The house still knows my name
even when I don't feel the same
I do not need to live there again
I just need to know it stayed
The house still knows my name
it remembers what I became from
When I forget who I used to be
that old place remembers enough
I left to find a bigger life
I did not know what I would lose
Some rooms do not call you back
they just keep a light for you
The house still knows my name
even when I don't feel the same
I do not need to live there again
I just need to know it stayed
The house still knows my name
it remembers what I became from
When I forget who I used to be
that old place remembers enough
Ooh
that old place
remembers enough
