Lyrics

Here's The House
�©Penny Towers Wilber

There's a willow way out back
Beyond there is the track
Where trains went by
The old corner house is gone
Something there went wrong
I don't know why
Here's the house where
I woke up each day
Here's the place where
we would play

There was a tough kid
down the street
The kind you'd hate to meet
Out on a walk
There was a tree fort by the brook
We can go and take a look
Where we would talk
Here's the house where I
would sleep each night
Here's the place where
Things felt right

I can almost hear
our laughter
All the fun that
we were after
Here's the house
That gave so much to me

The people there inside
would hold me when I cried
and set things right
They would talk away my tears
Help me with my fears
Turn on the light
Here's the house where
I would always learn
Here's the place where
I return

There's that pathway by the pine
I always thought was mine
Where I would run
There's the field back by the hedge
Beyond the rocky ledge
Close to sun

Here's the House
Here's the House
