Someday this house will live again
Someday the chandeliers will light up all the corners
Someday the windows will gleam and sparkle
Someday they'll be a warm glowing fire upon the hearth
Someday this house will live again

Someday the cobwebs will be brushed away
Someday they'll be a new shine upon this place
Someday they'll be laughter in the halls
Someday music will ring from the rafters
Someday this house will live again

Someday they'll be dancing in the ballroom
Banquet food will be in the kitchen
They'll be room for all it's guests
We'll enjoy the best of company
The master will be in charge of all the rest

Someday this house will stand in new splendor
A wonderful sight to behold
Energy efficient
Functions all intact
Architecturally sound
Original blueprints given the designer's touch

Someday this house you now gaze upon
With sadness in your heart
Longing the days it stood in curtained prime
Will be instantly transformed
In the twinkling of an eye
Renewed to life again

Someday this house will live again

This is wonderful, yes, all of it, every word, made me feel things the way I used to a long time ago. Thank you!
