Love knocked my door one day
In the mindst of my suffering
Lost at the core I turn away
When the illusion meant everything
As the winter of my dreams died down
I turned to hear the different sound

In the house of the rising sun
Stll the snow falls down on mercy streets
You can rest when the day is done
But you're long gone now
As the snow falls down on mercy streets

Long,long ago I held on tight
Life was all about making it
Then came the the time of the cold dark night
Disappointment had taken it
I would not have my day in the sun
But at least I could have some fun!

In the house of the rising sun
Stll the snow falls down on mercy streets
You can rest when the day is done
But you're long gone now
As the snow falls down on mercy streets

As the days goes down, slowly slipping now
There's a time bringhter knowing
Inner places reach, trying hard to breach
There's so much that we cannot understand

In the house of the rising sun
Stll the snow falls down on mercy streets
You can rest when the day is done
But you're long gone now
As the snow falls down on mercy streets
