Bruce Carroll - The Room lyrics

There's a room in the house where she never goes All the curtains are drawn and the windows stay closed She's got pictures and paint that she never used She's not so much angry as hurt and confused When her husband comes home after working so late They both try to be strong for the other one's sake And they talk about things that don't matter at all And neither one mentions what's right down the hall In the room where a cradle holds nothing but questions And the rocking chair waits in the dark Where the laughter is silent and the silence is louder Than even the cries of their heart Though their faith is strong and they still believe In what only the Lord can do They hold to each other and wait for the day When they can finally go in the room Though is seems like that have everything in their life They're not mother and dad, but still husband and wife As they live with the pain and conceal all the scars They're close to each other, but they're never too far From the room where a cradle holds nothing but questions And the rocking chair waits in the dark Where the laughter is silent and the silence is louder Than even the cries of their heart Though their faith is strong and they still believe In what only the Lord can do They hold to each other and they wait for the day When they can finally go in the room There's a light in the hallway that's calling To a place where the dream finds release In knowing their Heavenly Father is holding the key To the room where a cradle holds nothing but questions And the rocking chair waits in the dark Where the laughter is silent and the silence is louder Than even the cries of their heart And though their faith is strong and they still believe In what only the Lord can do They'll hold to each other and they'll wait for the day When they can finally go in the room Oh-whoa-whoa-whoa...
