The Old House on the Mountainside lyrics

The old house on the mountainside Wooden porch and peeling white Creaky floors, windows long and tall Steep narrow stairway to the cellar The old house on the mountainside The old house on the mountainside The first bedroom had an aura of gloom The portrait's eyes followed you 'round the room Dark closet which was never closed A dark hallway from which shapes evolved And the portrait of Jesus on the wall It's eyes follow you around the room That catholic icon, it creeped me out It's eyes follow you around the room The old house on the mountainside The old house on the mountainside The old house on the mountainside The old house on the mountainside When the trains passed everything trembled The view from the porch - opposite mountainside Divided by the Allegheny River This old house occupies so many of my dreams I can walk through this house in my mind The dream is different every time But in this house I seem to be Time and time again Time and time again Time and time again Time and time again
