The house where you live Is high on a hill And when the black clouds gather 'round As they sometimes will The time-worn path between your door and mine Becomes so dark and difficult to find But you're on my mind I imagine you there All the terror and tension Coming down, down, down In a flood of the unknown and unmentioned You brace against a wind that screams and sighs And count the hours 'till the storm subsides And I can only sympathize If I could stop the rain If I could set you free I'd do everything I can I'd like to think you'd do the same for me So keeping vigil 'till color cracks the shrouded sky I'll light a lamp and keep a watchful eye I'm standing by
