Dean Friscic Songs II
The Houses With Light
------------------------------
Walking down my street tonight,
went by the home of Mr. Brown.
His wife was ill for quite a while
but now I hear she's come around.
They've started doin' all the things
they did for many years before:
Putting lights up in the yard
- hanging a wreath on the door.
CHORUS
Snow is falling to the ground
on a silent winter's night
I can almost hear the prayers
from the houses with light.
Further down lives Mrs. Hale
Right now she's feelin' more at ease.
Just got the news from her son
- he's coming home from overseas.
She can't forget him as a child
or growing up handsome and tall.
She's kept a vigil in her heart
with a single candle in the hall.
repeat CHORUS
I can almost hear the prayers
from the houses with light.
