Tender Mending Lyrics

We nailed a bunch of pictures onto the walls
Wiped off all the kitchen counter tops
Lit a lot of candles on the table outside
To show our happy guests that we were happy inside
We vacuumed up the carpets and we mopped up the floors
Dusted off the shelves and had the sofa restored
Stocked the freezer full of food and drink for our friends
Told the next door neighbors they'd be gone after ten
They'd be gone after ten, gone after ten, gone after ten

But I don't go
The way you often roam
And you know
Yeh you know this
And it makes you sad, so very sad
I don't go
The way you often roam
And you know
Yeh you know this
And it makes you sad, so very sad

We nailed a bunch of pictures onto the walls
Wiped off all the kitchen counter tops
Oh and we lit a lot of candles on the table outside
To show our happy guests that we were happy inside
Oh we were happy inside
Oh we were happy inside
Oh we were happy inside
C'mon
We were happy inside
Oh we were happy inside
Happy yes happy yes happy inside
