What Say You Meg Lyrics - Sting

There's a house on the hill that's come off for sale 

It's a place I have known since I was a lad 

And it needs a lick of paint and a hammer and a nail 

But it's part of the boyhood dream I've always had 

I climb up the hill with the evening news 

I've been sent from the town to deliver 

And I stand in the porch and gaze at the views 

'Til my eyes are bruised by the sunset's glow on the river 

I'd imagine a girl who would share my life 

As dreamers all tend to do 

And the face I always conjured up 

Was no one else but you

What say you, Meg? 

How's this story's ending? 

I want you, Meg, by my side 

What's the use, Meg, 

To gaze at a view on your own? 

For rich or for poorer 

In sickness, in health 

I will see this through, Meg 

No chance of this ending 

Such a view, Meg 

As we gaze from a house on the hill 

To love and to cherish 

To have and to hold 

I'm a hard man to beat 

If I may be so bold 

And I promise it all by the sweat of my brow 

Tell me what say you, Meg, now?

What say you, Meg? 

What's this story shaping? 

I want you, Meg 

As we gaze from a house on the hill 

For rich or for poorer 

In sickness, in health 

I'll be hard to replace 

If I say so myself 

And I promise it all by the sweat of my brow 

Tell me what say you, Meg, now?
