This house Called us on the other coast It knew that weâ#128##153#d become a ghost It said as far as it could tell We should come out and stay a spell And it took us in with open arms High above the lights and car alarms Of the carnival that canâ#128##153#t be killed This house upon the hill This house Sends me to the streets below To go and play another show But it loves it when we come home fine To drink another bottle of wine And it makes our bed upon the porch Under starlightâ#128##153#s silver torch And it stays up when I canâ#128##153#t sleep Cause it knows Iâ#128##153#ve got a plan to keep This house Is going to take the fall for me While I walk away free The house Has seen it all done before Had a hundred people through its door And it knows weâ#128##153#re not getting young But it wants our song to be sung And itâ#128##153#s sad that weâ#128##153#ve got to go Though I told it weâ#128##153#ll be back, I know And I hope it will be standing still This house upon the hill
