Sinatra, Frank - A Cottage For Sale Lyrics
A little dream castle with every dream gone
Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn
And my heart is heavy as I gaze upon
A cottage for sale
A beautiful garden has withered away
Where you planted roses the weeds seem to say
A cottage for sale
From every single window I see your face
But when I reach a window there's empty space
The key's in the mailbox the same as before
But no one is waiting for me anymore
The end of our story is there on the door
A cottage for sale

Sinatra, Frank A Cottage For Sale Comments
This song is so heartbreaking and tragic.
This song seriously hits my heart hard.
This is my life.
Divorce is such a sad affair.
Thanks for recording, Frankie! It's a treat getting to listen to him sing 💕
Strikingly beautiful. Sinatra was a master of his craft.
Great comment 💕 yes he was!
These were the kind of song Frank Sinatra thrived on and could sing better than anyone. He called himself "a saloon singer" and the ballads that suited that title are what he sang best. Three albums, that he called "the suicide albums" were 3 of my favorites: No One Cares, Only The Lonely, and "Where Are You" -- but I would add "In The Wee Small Hours of the Morning" to those other three. Some of his best work is in these albums. He sang his very last song on Feb. 25, 1995, at the golf club in Palm Springs named for him, "The Best Is Yet To Come" and sang it quite well for an 80-year-old man, (his son led the orchestra) but it was his last song, he was starting to forget lyrics and, being a perfectionist, could not stand that so that was when he decided NOT to sing any more. At the celebration in honor of his 80th birthday, he was brought up on the stage and sang a few bars of "New York, New York" to a rousing applause. But he was smart, and knew when to hang it up for good. (He died on May 14, 1998 at age 82. We sorely miss him, but are fortunate to have so many of his great recordings.
Just masterful. Perfection.
A little dream castle, with every dream gone
Is lonely and silent, the shades are all drawn
And my heart is heavy, as I gaze upon a cottage for sale.
The lawn we were proud of is waving in hay
A beautiful garden has withered away
Where you planted roses, the weeds seem to say, A cottage for sale
From every single window, I see your face
But when I reach the window, there's empty space
The key's in the mailbox, the same as before
But no one is waiting for me anymore
The end of our story is there on the door, A cottage for sale
My second favorite version of the song. Newfangled four will always be first
Heart-breaking as only Frank can do it.
this is one of the most romantic telling songs i ever heard..
Last one to leave, please turn out the lights.
A fine 'reading' of the lyrics. i listened to others doing this song but Frank is the best.
God, this is so good. He could make a simple song seem like a three-act play. Just amazing.
bonniejean...sadly this is my son's song now... very sad. Thanks for sharing the beauty of old blue eyes great voice.
As I listened to this song, I couldn't help but wonder if the listener was to think (1) that a married couple were now separated or (2) that one spouse had died. I decided to read a bit about the song and learned that lyricist Larry Conley (in 1929) had left the lyrics ambiguous, so that they could be meaningful to the widest possible audience.
The Greatest Of All Blue Eyes Songs and he will always be loved for this TIMELESS recording !!!! I will always love Blue Eyes!!!
One of the saddest songs ever written..
My heart goes out to you...sorry for your loss.
you're talking to yourself but ok
Heartbreakingly beautiful! Sinatra was a genius whose music will live forever!
I still have the LP. Great.
The album this comes from, NO One Cares, was the first Sinatra album I got. I've loved him ever since.
