"House On The Hill" lyrics - CHICAGO

Some days, my mind just flashes
To far and distant time
All familiar faces
Faces in their prime
Where I lived my story
Where I found my pain
I recall the setting
Laughing eyes that shine
Funny how this instant
Funny and sublime
Tender social graces
Never social climb
Spent my lifetime leaving
Thousands of goodbyes
I recall emotions
Every single time

[Chorus:]
Might be a dream that I had
Of a house on the hill
Maybe just a book left unread
And it bothers me still (Bothers me still)

Cinematic motion
Playing all the time

Desert shadows falling
My arms open wide
Images of my life
'Til the end of time

[Chorus:]
It might be a dream that I had
Of a house on the hill
Or maybe just a book left unread
And it bothers me still

Helpless to the moment
Helpless to the time
Endless destinations
Endlessly divine
