There's a house on a hill
With a cracked window sill
And a roof caving into the groundAnd it's old and it's worn
And the curtains are torn
And tomorrow they're tearing it downAnd just like a heart
It's falling apart
It couldn't stand up
If a hard wind blewAnd it's been through it all
And there's cracks in the wall
They may as well just
Take me down too
There's a house on a hill
When the night has been still
You can hear the years creak in the floor
And for the broken down stair
You better say your last prayer
Cos tomorrow it won't be there no moreCost just like a heart
It's falling apart
It couldn't stand up
If a hard wind blewAnd it's been through it all
And there's brakes in the wall
They may as well just take me down tooAnd no one's gonna oil up the rust in the door
The birds and the mail man don't stop anymore
And it stands all alone
I guess I should have know
That a house ain't always a home
Cost just like a heart
I'm falling apart
I couldn't stand up
If a hard wind blewAnd I've been through it all
And there's cracks in this wall
They may as well just
Take me down too
They may as well just
Take me down too
