Take Care Of This House
Composer(s): Alan Jay Lerner - Leonard Bernstein
Performer(s): Julie Andrews
and multiple other artists



Here in this shell of a house
this house that is struggling to be
falling through the hall
coming straight through the wall
is hope staring down at me
but there's nothing you can see
sadness will flow down a cheek
courage stand out like a tree
Joy, joy is as bright
as a comet in flight
but hope isn't easy to see

Take Care Of This House
keep it from harm
if bandits break in sound the alarm
Care for this house
shine it by hand 
and keep it so clean
the glow can be seen all over the land

be careful at night
check all the doors
if someone makes off with a dream
the dream will be yours
Take Care Of This House
be always on call
for this house is the home of us all

Be careful at night
check all the doors
if someone makes off with a dream
the dream will be yours
Take Care Of This House
be always on call
for this house its the home of us all
