(Nits)



I saw the house on the hill

It burned like a tree

In an endless night

Tell me river when the fire ends

Tell me fire where the river bends



I had a vision of my house

It turned into a flame

On the riverside

Tell me fire where the river bends

Tell me river when the fire ends



Tears are falling down

Like a river through a town

Where I saw the house on the hill



Something in my mind's eye said

I was afraid

Something in the late sky said

I was returning

Back into the river

Where I once had sailed

Back into the fire

Where I was not burning



I saw the house on the hill

It bloomed like a flower

In the summer rain

Tell me fire where the river bends

Tell me river when the fire ends
