House By the Sea
I live alone in a house by the sea,
It's a great place to be,
if you know nobody.
It gets me thinking that there must be something more,
than staring at the floor,
never answering the door.
but oh, that's for better men than I.
Sometimes I think that I would be a holy man,
if I could make 'em understand,
just to keep off of my land.
'Cause you can't sin when there is no one there to hurt,
no one to give your shirt,
just the trees and the dirt.
But oh, that's got to be a lie.
Oh, in the Spring,
the snow is still lingering,
the birds may start to sing,
but they're still shivering.
I live alone in a house too tall,

the wind comes through the wall,
from the winter to the fall.
And my neighbour's got split wood he hasn't sold,
or so I've been told,
but I'd rather just be cold.
But oh, don't ask me why.
Oh, in the Fall,
the wind blows through the wall,
the winter lives in the hall,
but I don't really mind at all.
I started wishing you would end up like me,
now you can see,
just how bad I can be.
I just keep thinking here that something's gotta give,
there's no point staying if,
it's a place that I can't live.
But oh, it's a place that I could die.
