The darkest house is a lonely house The warmest house is my song And if it makes you, all but happy Let it bring you along The sweetest room is a lady The softest tune is goodbye Is she real or just an image Dis she leave satisfied The life you lead is uncertain How long has it been since you've heard hello or goodbye Streets are filled with many people passin' My eyes they are closed but still you hear them cry The darkest house is a lonely house The warmest house is my song And if it makes you, all but happy Let it bring you along Silver and gold are treasures To many people this is why they've dared the tide The thought of fortune pulls them through tomorrow Is it worth the feeling when you fall into her eyes
