House on the hill
Peaceful and still
Only sounds of music ever fill
The air
Birds everywhere
Ribbons in their hair
I’m so glad I had the time to stop
And share
Sitting in the parlour
We talked over tea
Waiting for his wife to bring
The girls from the academy
For the house on hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people
And the house on hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people
Happy and healthy
And quite a bit wealthy
But economic structure never stood
In the way
When I had to leave
Before I’d wanted to go They made me happy
I only hope they know
For the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people
And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people
And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people
And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away
In love with those pretty people
And the house on the hill
Took me in that day
And I fell right away (House on the hill)
