House on Telegraph Hill ( Lyrics )

It coulda been another typical day

With the early mornin' fog rollin' in to the city by the bay

I was gettin' on a southbound train

And as we pulled out--I could swear I heard Amelia call my name

I was dreamin' of her there

On the bed that we share

And her tender kiss that said goodbye

When the ground began to rumble

We could hear the city crumble

And in it everybody in it could die

(CHORUS)

Oh my Amelia I'm comin' to you

If I can make it then you know I will

The streets are broken, the sky is fallin'

And the city is burnin' still

Oh please forgive me, I should have been by your side

And I'm never gonna stop until

I see you smilin', I see you wavin'

From the house of Telegraph Hill

It woulda been an ordinary night

But 700 folks they would never get to see the morning light

As I struggled to the edge of town

Not a single building stood, they had all been levelled to the

ground

There was nothin' let to see

Where our house used to be

And my heart cried out in pain

All the love I ever gave her

Couldn't pick her up and save her

And I only have myself to blame

(REPEAT CHORUS)

What's that I see

Could that be you girl?

Remembered this song when it came out...always thought it should have done better than it did. Great little tune for the period. Typical Heywoods.

Wow, I forgot about this song! I used to know all the words. These guys not only sang and played well, but they were genuinely down to earth and always met their fans. Good job guys! I wonder what they are doing these days?

This is Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods doing what they did best--tearjerkers

I wish they wrote and produced songs like they did back in the 70s. Wish that period could have lasted longer.

This is a good song, but 'Special Someone' - From this same album - Is better. Haven't heard that song in quite some time.

i heard that he works in computer software in some capacity. i've always wondered why there has never been a movie based on the 1906 san fran earthquake. it could be great.
