House Of The Setting Sun lyrics

I was just a small boy Outside, having fun Older guys would talk about The house of the setting Sun Where the stairs lead to nowhere And there's windows on the floor Don't be afraid if you go there You can always go home If you can't find the door In the House of the Setting Sun In the House of the Setting Sun I was just a young guy Twenty-some years old Looking for something to work for Beside what I'd been told I found myself at the old house I made my way to the front door And it was way before dawn when Suddenly, the lights went out But the band played on and on In the House of the Setting Sun In the House of the Setting Sun I was just a wanderer Trying to seize the day Train tracks lead to nowhere Needles in the hay Then I had a revelation For the place I used to roam When I met my destination Thousand prying eyes upon me Asking me things I don't know In the House of the Setting Sun In the House of the Setting Sun Now that I'm much older Time not healing that Locks on all the windows But the ghosts keep coming back If the mystery's faded From the days I used to roll Fired up and fascinated All around the world to find out I'm already home In the House of the Setting Sun In the House of the Setting Sun In the House of the Setting Sun In the House of the Setting Sun
