House on the Hill

House on the hill

Peaceful and still

Only sounds of music ever filled

The air

Birds everywhere

With ribbons in their hair

I'm so glad I had the time to stop

And share

Sitting in the parlor

We talked over tea

Waiting for his wife to bring

The girls from the academy

Oh, 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 the economic structure never stood

In the way

When I had to leave

Before I wanted to go

They made me happy

I only hope they know

Oh, 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...
