Lyrics of Back to the Old House by The Smiths
chorus
I would rather not go
Back to the old house
chorus
I would rather not go
Back to the old house
There's too many bad memories
Too many memories
verse
When you cycled by, here began all my dreams
The saddest thing I've ever seen
And you never knew
How much I really liked you
Because I never even told you
Oh, and I meant to
Are you still there?
hook
Or have you moved away?
Or have you moved away?
chorus
I would love to go
Back to the old house
But I never will
I never will, I never will
I never will
Writer(s): Steven Patrick Morrissey, Johnny Marr
