[Verse 1]
Consider a room you've left
Is there anyone left when you've gone?
Who was there just now?
Is it empty at night?
Someone walked where you are standing
Someone stood where you are walking
Do you think anything remains
Or is it all forgotten in 100 years?
[Chorus]
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Maybe they are still there? Who lived in your house before you moved there?
[Verse 2]
Do you have a secret friend?
Are there haunting spirits?
Hidden and forgotten in the multitude
Between earth and heaven?
Do you think you leave a trace
Behind you where you live?
Where is last winter's snow?
There are more at home than you think!
[Chorus]
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Maybe they are still there? Who lived in your house before you moved there?
[Bridge]
Others have thought what you are thinking now
Can you hear the echoes of songs of times past?
Can you sense the age in an old house?
Do you feel the wind of history blowing?
What becomes of the past? What becomes of the past?
What becomes of the past?
[Chorus]
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Have you ever considered who lived in your house before you moved there?
Maybe they are still there? Who lived in your house before you moved there?
[Outro]
