House Upon the Hill
There is a house upon the hill
A secret meeting of the makers
Screaming holy hallelujahs
There is a house upon the hill
Where our lives collide
Do you still have the heart to try?
Do you still live in the house upon the hill?
My heart beats, in tune, in time
Do you hear it call out?
My heart beats for you
But silence draws out
Do you still want to build that home?
Where fire warms us on a cold night
Our shadow puppets dance the half-light
Do you still want to build that home?
You and I, on trust and love and peace and stepping stones
You and I, on lust and sex and fear of being alone
Don't you still want to build that home?
My heart beats, in tune, in time
Do you hear it call out?
My heart beats for you
But silence draws out
You will never be alone
You will never be lonely
That's exactly the words she said to me
In our house upon the hillside
Silence draws out
A secret meeting of the makers
Screaming holy hallelujahs
There is a house upon the hill
Where our lives collide
Do you still have the heart to try?
Do you still live in the house upon the hill?
My heart beats, in tune, in time
Do you hear it call out?
My heart beats for you
But silence draws out
Do you still want to build that home?
Where fire warms us on a cold night
Our shadow puppets dance the half-light
Do you still want to build that home?
You and I, on trust and love and peace and stepping stones
You and I, on lust and sex and fear of being alone
Don't you still want to build that home?
My heart beats, in tune, in time
Do you hear it call out?
My heart beats for you
But silence draws out
You will never be alone
You will never be lonely
That's exactly the words she said to me
In our house upon the hillside
Silence draws out
