《This Is Not The House That Pain Built》歌词

[00:00:00] This Is Not The House That Pain Built - Dar Williams

[00:00:05] My house is hard to find but I'll give you directions

[00:00:09] You can visit sometime

[00:00:10] Down where all that I built surrounds me

[00:00:15] Just make sure your car's got good shocks

[00:00:18] There's steep hills there's potholes there's rocks

[00:00:21] I work in the garden my son plays around me

[00:00:25] Close the gate behind you

[00:00:27] There's a horse that can't get out

[00:00:31] I will see you first is that all right

[00:00:35] And can you remember can you remember

[00:00:47] This is not the house that pain built

[00:00:53] This is not the house that pain built

[00:01:00] I was drowning in something I jumped in the rift

[00:01:03] And you knew me back then

[00:01:04] When I spat on my gift but no

[00:01:17] It's tough and it's tiring when you go it alone

[00:01:19] I learned about wiring I learned about stone

[00:01:23] The building is done but the work's never through

[00:01:26] And I won't give up no how

[00:01:29] It reminds me of who I am and where I am now

[00:01:33] I remember myself that's the work that I do

[00:01:38] On a spring night when the snow is melting

[00:01:41] You'll see two sets of footprints walking

[00:01:44] Look at all the stars and turn around and walk home

[00:01:53] Slowly walk home

[00:01:59] This is not the house that pain built

[00:02:06] That is not a house that pain built

[00:02:12] My friends all think that I holed up and hid

[00:02:16] But I tell them I didn't you know I don't think I did no

[00:02:47] And this is where I let my pain go

[00:02:54] This is where I let my pain go

[00:03:01] This is where the footprints dance in the snow
