The House With The Windows

by Sheila K Cameron

about

The house with the windows was beautifully located and overlooking the sea. The recently located photograph is of the beach in front of the house.

To suggest to a lover that the house would be acceptable as a gift was an entirely audacious suggestion.
The rest of the sentiments are genuine

The words 'the indians no more' is a reference to the Haida's who were under threat at the time. This is no longer the case but the words were written then and they have been left unchanged

lyrics

I'll take the house with the windows
Which overlook the sea
I'll take it with pleasure
As a gift from you to me

And when the sea gets rough
And the moon doesn't shine
I'll take the house with you in it
To help me pass the time

We will sit by the fire
And talk of sea and shore
Of pebbles and of agates
Of the Indians no more

We will drink a little whisky
And drink a little more
I will pour you one enormous glass
As you glance towards the door

When midnight's but a breath away
The fire burning low
I'll plead with you to share my bed
And you'll refuse to go

I'll take the house with the windows
Which overlook the sea
I'll take it with pleasure
As a gift from you to me

And when the sea gets rough
And the moon doesn't shine
I'll take the house with you in it
To help me pass the time
