House Upon the Hill-Chris Velan

[00:14.27]This house [00:16.74]Called us on the other coast [00:19.99]It knew that we'd become a ghost [00:23.46]It said as far as it could tell [00:26.82]We should come out and stay a spell [00:30.38]And it took us in with open arms [00:33.84]High above the lights and car alarms [00:37.40]Of the carnival that can't be killed [00:40.99]This house upon the hill [00:50.00] [00:50.21]This house [00:51.98]Sends me to the streets below [00:55.15]To go and play another show [00:58.62]But it loves it when we come home fine [01:02.19]To drink another bottle of wine [01:05.55]And it makes our bed upon the porch [01:09.26]Under starlight's silver torch [01:12.66]And it stays up when I can't sleep [01:16.32]Cause it knows I've got a plan to keep [01:21.44] [01:21.64]This house [01:24.07]Is going to take the fall for me [01:27.63]While I walk away free [01:30.83]While I walk away free [01:34.33]While I walk away free [01:57.50] [01:57.70]This house [01:58.91]Has seen it all done before [02:02.17]Had a hundred people through its door [02:05.58]And it knows we're not getting young [02:09.35]But it wants our song to be sung [02:12.43]And it's sad that we've got to go [02:16.34]Though I told it we'll be back I know [02:19.95]And I hope it will be standing still [02:23.19]This house upon the hill [02:31.00]
