Restoration Ruin

Keith Jarrett

[Verse 1]
I walked by a stream on a cloudy day
Saw an old house all brown and gray
It crumbled inside but it was okay

[Verse 2]
The trees all around and the stream made a sound
I walked up the hill and sat on the ground
Nobody was around 'cept possibly me

[Verse 3]
I looked again at the house quite soon
And found it was part of the afternoon
I heard it play an ancient tune

[Verse 4]
The house came to life with a different hue
It hadn't been there but a week or two
It looked so old but it was really new

[Chorus]
The things that are old come back to you
The things you were told remember too
They all come back in a different pattern
And make their old-time faces young as you
The things that are old come back to you
The things you were told remember too
They all come back in a different pattern
And make their old-time faces young as you
