House Upon The Hill Lyrics

This house
Called us on the other coast
It knew that we’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 can’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 starlight’s silver torch Chris Velan - House Upon The Hill - http://motolyrics.com/chris-velan/house-upon-the-hill-lyrics.html
And it stays up when I can’t sleep
Cause it knows I’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 we’re not getting young
But it wants our song to be sung
And it’s sad that we’ve got to go
Though I told it we’ll be back, I know
And I hope it will be standing still
This house upon the hill
