This House

Written by：Paul Stookey/Robert Bannard

This house goes on sale every Wednesday morning

And taken off the market in the afternoon

You can buy a piece of it if you want to

It's been good to me if it's been good for you

Take the grand look now the fire is burning

Is that your reflection on the wall

I can show you this room and some others

If you came to see the house at all

Careful up the stairs a few are missing

I haven't had the time to make repairs

First step is the hardest one to master

Last one I'm not really sure is there

This room here once had childish laughter

And I come back to hear it now and again

I can't say that I'm certain what you're after

But in this room a part of you will remain

This house goes on sale every Wednesday morning

And taken off the market in the afternoon

You can buy a piece of it if you want to

It's been good to me if it's been good to you
