|
There's a house on a hill |
|
With a cracked window sill |
|
And a roof caving into the ground |
|
And it's old and it's worn |
|
And the curtains are torn |
|
And tomorrow they're tearing it down |
|
And just like a heart |
|
It's falling apart |
|
It couldn't stand up |
|
If a hard wind blew |
|
And it's been through it all |
|
And there's cracks in the wall |
|
They may as well just |
|
Take me down too |
|
There's a house on a hill |
|
When the night has been still |
|
You can hear the years creak in the floor |
|
And for the broken down stair |
|
You better say your last prayer |
|
Cos tomorrow it won't be there no more |
|
Cost just like a heart |
|
It's falling apart |
|
It couldn't stand up |
|
If a hard wind blew |
|
And it's been through it all |
|
And there's brakes in the wall |
|
They may as well just take me down too |
|
And no one's gonna oil up the rust in the door |
|
The birds and the mail man don't stop anymore |
|
And it stands all alone |
|
I guess I should have know |
|
That a house ain't always a home |
|
Cost just like a heart |
|
I'm falling apart |
|
I couldn't stand up |
|
If a hard wind blew |
|
And I've been through it all |
|
And there's cracks in this wall |
|
They may as well just |
|
Take me down too |
|
They may as well just |
|
Take me down too |
