Restore Me Steven McKay

I’m just around the corner come knock on my door
You can see what they abandoned me for
It’s been a long time since I was occupied
Even longer since I washed
Hard to believe that I was beautiful before

Before they boarded up my windows - to keep you all outside
Before they stripped me of my valuables
Leave me nothing but to ask you too

Restore me – fix me up – you can’t ignore me
All your efforts will restore you
Rеwards with every sacrifice
And I’ll rеstore you – don’t let me fester I implore you
Fix me now or I’ll destroy you
And I’m prepared to pay the price

I’ve sat here through the winters no one to keep me warm inside
The vacancy has stripped me of my pride
And it’s stripped me of my finish, now I’m rotten to the core
Hard to believe that I was beautiful before

Before they boarded up my windows - to keep you all outside
Before they stripped me of my valuables
Leave me nothing but to ask you too
