Roger Hodgson

There's a house on the corner
Lives a man who went to war
And it tries to give him shelter
From the pain of what he saw
There's a child out the window
Painting faces in the snow
And they smile a sad reminder
Of a life he used to know
There's a house on the corner
Lives a man with empty eyes
For his heart has been broken
For he was sold a pack of lies
And he said
Hold me closer You know I can't
Hold me closer But you don't understand
