Somebody's Home - Lucy Kaplansky

It's raining in my house tonight

Roof's leaking everywhere

Flowing over buckets

And pouring down the stairs

Taking spins around the hallway

Then ramblin' out the door

Out across the highway

And down the empty pier

Deep into the river
The water it does fall
Then it's just a part of water
Flowing through it all
And every time it rains
And every time I cry
It's just another current
In that river flowing by

[Chorus]
Somebody's home
Though you ache and feel alone
Someone you've always known
Somebody's home

There's a fire in my house tonight
It's burning everywhere
It started in my cellar
Now it's raging up the stairs
And now my walls are burning, too
And the roof is crashing in
Finally there's only flames
Where once my house had been

The sashes fall and flames take off
In spirals to the sky
And turn into the blazing stars
That through the blackness lie
And though I mourn my own four walls
I try to understand
It's spread across the sky
And through the earth on which I stand

[Repeat Chorus]

[Bridge]
In a desert there's an old man
Against an ancient sky
Weary from a broken heart
He comes to say good-bye

But first he wants to know
If he can know it once again
And as his tears do heal him
The heavens start to rain

[Repeat Chorus]
