lyrics

The road ahead is long and dry
It's path is dust and leads up high
The weeds to the side bend to the will
Of the wind as it rolls down the hill
With our tents spinning 'round
The people inside all fall out

[Chorus]
But the house on the hill doesn't move
Doesn't budge
Shakes no more soon than the Man inside will waver His mind
By and by, He stays the same.

And all the tents disappear
The people alone, all in fear
They need a place to go, they have to hide
In the brush along the side
Of the road, so long and dry
But if they choose they can follow the path up high

[Chorus]

Once they've arrived to the porch
The sun wakes up and lights the door
And if you lightly tap on it's front
The door will quickly open up
The wooden creak is a homely sound
"Please enter in - You've been found!"

[Chorus]
