The House Where I Lived

Thinking about San Francisco And the house where I lived Back in 1972 When I was fourteen Thinking about San Francisco And the house where I lived And about the photo of my cousin's baby Taken near the big picture window Thinking about San Francisco And the house where I lived And about how people grow up And people grow old Thinking about San Francisco And the house where I lived And about how people and things change But houses not so much

Thinking about San Francisco And the house where I lived Knowing it did look just the same When I saw it again in 2006 Thinking about San Francisco And the house where I lived And about how so much has changed Even since 2006 Thinking about San Francisco And how the house stayed the same While people grew up And people grew old And everything else Changed
