The Antique Doll

# THE ANTIQUE DOLL

She sat beside the window
Before I knew her name,
Porcelain eyes and faded lace,
While everything else changed.

She saw the children growing,
She saw the old ones gone,
The house changed hands a hundred times —
But still, she carried on.

**The antique doll,
Silent on the wall,
She knows every secret,
She remembers us all.**

*— Instrumental —*

They packed the books and pictures,
They locked the final door,
But someone took the little doll
As someone had before.

**[Spoken]**

*Don't leave her behind.*
*She belongs to the family.*

**The antique doll...
She remembers us all.**
