Jeff Healey Band House That Love Built Lyrics

House That Love Built Lyrics

The bar was filled with smoke and lies,

I couldn't see a thing, it burned my
eyes

I pushed a strange woman off my lap,

she had a snake tattooed on
her back



The doors opened into the night,

the silence kissed my
worried life

I heard a song comin' from the back,

it played over and
over again



CHORUS



I stood just around the bend, over the
hill,

across the river bed, one step closer to hell

If I forget about
my past, forget about my guilt,

I go back to the house that love built,
that love built



I went back to the bar again,

and headed straight
for the band

I need to remember not to forget,

all the life and the
love we had



So play that song and make it right,

get me out of
this lonely night

Slapped all my money into his hand,

said play it over
and over again



CHORUS



Let me come inside, baby,

let me
come inside into the house that love built,

that love built, the house that
love built,

the house that love built
