Somebody's Home Lyrics - Lucy Kaplansky

It's raining in my house tonight 

Roof's leaking everywhere 

It's overflowing buckets 

And pouring down the stairs 

Taking spins around the hallway 

Then rambling out the door 

Out across the highway 

And down the empty pier 

Then deep into the river 

The water it does fall 

I hear the river rising 

As I listen through my wall 

And every time it rains 

And every time I cry 

It's just another current 

In that river flowing by 

Somebody's home 

Though you ache and feel alone 

Someone you've always known 

Somebody's home 

There's a fire in my house tonight 

It's climbing up the stairs 

It's tearing through my photographs 

And choking off the air 

And now the walls are burning too 

And the roof is crashing in 

And finally there's only flames 

Where once my house had been 

As embers fall the flame take off 

In spirals to the sky 

Then turn into the blazing stars 

That through the heavens fly 

And though I mourn my own four walls 

I try to understand 

I can see my wooden house 

In the ashes in my hand 

Somebody's home 

Though you ache and feel alone 

Someone you've always known 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Though you ache and feel alone 

Someone you've always known 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home 

Somebody's home
