This old house is falling down round mice. I'm drowning in a river of my tears. When all my will is gone, you can hear me pray. I need you at the dimming of the day.
This old house is falling down around my ears. I'm drowning in a river of my tears. When all my will is gone you hold me sway. I need you at the dimming of the day.
This old house is falling down around my ears. I am drowning in a river of my tears. When all my will is gone you hold me sway. And I need you at the dimming of the day.
Out in the desert there's a soldier lying dead. Vultures pecking the eyes out of his head. Another day that could have been me there instead. Nobody loves me here.
Don't go walking down Chapel Street. Down Chapel Street they'll jump you. Cut your throat as soon as give you the eye. Those wholesome girls down Chapel Street.
This old house is falling down around my ears. I'm drowning in a river of my tears. When all my will is gone you hold me sway. I need you at the dimming of the day.
See the boys out walking. The boys, they look so fine. Dressed up in green velvet. Their silver buckles shine. . Soon theyll be bleary eyed. Under a keg of wine.
Remember when we were hand in hand. Remember, we sealed it with a golden band. Now your eyes don't meet mine. You've got a pulse like fever. Do I take you for a lover or just a deceiver.
