About the Artist
Lyrics
[Intro] What say you Meg? [Verse] There's an house on the hill that's come off for sale It's a place I have known since I was a lad And it needs only a carpenter an hour and a nail Whit the spur of the boy of dream I've always had I climbed up the hill with the evening news I've been sent from the town to deliver And I stand in the porch and gaze at the views Until my eyes are bruised by the sunset's glow and the river I'd imagined a girl with whom share my life As dreamers are all tempted to do And the face I always come up Was no one else but you [Chorus 1] What say you Meg? What's the story's ending I want you Meg By my side What's the use Meg To gaze at the view on your own? [Chorus 2] For rich or for poorer In sickness in health I will see this through Meg No chance of this ending Such a view Meg As we gaze From the house on the hill [Bridge] To love and to cherish To heaven to odd I'm a hard man to beat If I'm maybe so bored [Chorus 3] And I promise it all by the sword of my brow Tell me what say you Meg now? [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Chorus 3]
