Up upon a hill nThere is a housenAn empty book upon an empty shelfnLook out belownI hear them coming up the roadnnAnd once upon a timenIt was a placenWay back when nobody knew your namenWe read the papers everydaynnA summer daynIt's good to hide yourself awaynBut if you're gone too longnSoon you're on your waynnI'm not sure nIf I can go there anymorenCause when I venture backnIt's empty and it's coldnnWell there was a stream out therenLike a country fairnIt's about to rise againnJust like the way we metnAnd if you can see your lifenWell it's cold as icenWill you ever walk againnThat's not the way it endsnNonnBack around the turn of the centurynIt was a woman, a child and menWe tracked the landnThis little Buddah on our handsnAnd just before the preacher came to menShe said there's something you should seenYou've got some fire left to breathennSo step awaynBecause you are hungry but you're safenBut if you close your eyesnYou'll know just what to saynnLa La La La La La LannYou could be lost nBut your in someone else's thoughtsnnLa La La La La La LannCause we go roundnStill as round and round and roundnStill it's once away not doubtingnEnough to seenTodaynnRound and round and round and round nownI say nRound and round and round and round nownWe go round and round and round and round nownWhoa oh oh nWhoa oh oh oh ohnOooooo
