Lyrics The House Our Father Knew - Jump Little Children

The House Our Father Knew

Fate will find a way, for you
On golden wings and leaden shoes
All the way to the house our father knew
And this angry storm of slamming doors
And broken glass on hardwood floors
Waits for you in the house our father knew
Don’t you hear that defeaning roar
Again and again in a broken refrain
We’re homeward bound, pulled by the sound
Of history repeating
Green monkey grass and granite stones
A bitter heart and frozen bones
Pave the way to the house our father knew
Every second chance, set me free
Has come and gone and left a key
Left for you to the house our father knew
Don’t you hear that defeaning roar
Again and again in a broken refrain
We’re homeward bound, pulled by the sound
Of history repeating
All these rooms
Stairways going over
Let it be The house our father knew
Don’t you hear that defeaning roar
Again and again in a broken refrain
We’re homeward bound, pulled by the sound
Of history repeating
Don’t you hear that defeaning roar
Again and again in a broken refrain
We’re homeward bound, pulled by the sound
Of history repeating
History repeating
History repeating
