My House Lyrics by Lou Reed

My House Lyrics

    The image of the poet's in the breeze
    Canadian geese are flying above the trees
    A mist is hanging gently on the lake
    My house is very beautiful at night

    My friend and teacher occupies a spare room
    He's dead, at peace at last the wandering jew
    Other friends had put stones on his grave
    He was the first great man that i had ever met

    Sylvia and i got out our ouija board
    To dial a spirit, across the room it soared
    We were happy and amazed at what we saw
    Blazing stood the proud and regal name delmore

    Delmore, i missed all your funny ways
    I missed your jokes and the brilliant things you said
    My dedalus to your bloom, was such a perfect wit
    And to find you in my house makes things perfect

    I really got a lucky life
    My writing, my motorcycle and my wife
    And to top it all off a spirit of pure poetry
    Is living in this stone and wood house with me

    The image of the poet's in the breeze
    Canadian geese are flying above the trees
    A mist is hanging gently on the lake
    Our house is very beautiful at night

    Our house is very beautiful at night
    Our house is very beautiful at night
    Our house is very beautiful at night
