  • I got a house full of walls
    And utility bills, every Monday the company calls
    I got a nice bed to sleep on
    And a chest of drawers, where I keep those jewels of yours

    Cause you're always mine to keep when you're gone
    Two silvers rings, one's on my finger and the other one's gone
    It went underground with you, oh John

    Ten years passed
    And I ended up with a house full of cats
    But most of them went missing
    On that window you never fixed, the door you never latched

    When you were on your way out like the last time

    Cause you are always mine to keep when you're gone
    Two silvers rings, one's on my finger and the other one's gone
    It went underground with you, oh John, oh John

    I knew what you were doing
    That summer when Candy came around
    But I had too much hurt to bother you
    When we lost our first child I thought a little payment was overdue
    And I wanted you so bad

    Cause you are always mine to keep when you're gone
    Two silvers rings, one's on my finger and the other one's gone
    It went underground with you, oh John, oh John, oh John, o John

    I miss you
    I miss you
    I miss you
    I miss you
