I used to sing this song when I was still a lot younger and still single. Years later I bought a house on credit and my family and I lived there for over 10 years. House for sale song never came into my mind at all until one day we had to sell the house due to our financial crises. W had no choice we had to sell it. It was not easy. We waited a long time until the house finally sold a little bit below the price we wanted to. Then we bought another house and we still the remaining amount of money to keep us living. Several weeks ago I read my daughter's comment about a photo of our old house. She said she missed the house, meaning that she loved it so much. If I wanna be honest with you, I too loved the house. If only we had had enough money at that time, we wouldn't have sold it. So, every time I listen to this song (House for sale) I cannot stop my tears from rolling down on my face.

Me too. I have had to sell two Houses through going broke and no work but even so I try to like the House I am in now even though we came here in not good circumstances.
I still try to find something good about it and the situation.
I miss the other houses too but don´t cry for them anymore as it makes me feel much worse.

I got over it, actually but my daughter seems to have liked the house. She would bring her school friends to the house and she would get together there several times. In our new house she has never invited her friends anymore, simply perhaps the new house is a bit smaller and the surrounding is sort of things we can be proud of.

Being younger she would feel it more than us. Its hard to explain to anyone how I felt about my Grandmother dying and her House being sold and knowing I would never go back there again or even play with the Children I had made Friends with there and whole lot of other things that go when you have to sell a House.
