This House Lyrics

This House lyrics

Whose sticky hands are there
And what is this empty place
I could be
happily lost but for your face
Here stands an empty house
That used to 
be full of life
Now it's home for no one and his wife
It's a hovel
and...
Who can take your place?
I can't face another day
And who will
shelter me?
It's cold in here
Cover me
Under these fingertips a
strange body rolls and dips
I close my eyes and you're here again
Later
as day descends
I'll shout from my window
To anyone listening, "I'm
losing"
Who can take your place?
I can't face another day
And who will
shelter me?
It's cold in here
Cover me
Oh in a plague of hateful
questioning
Tap dancing every syllable from ear to ear
I hear the din of
lovers jousting
When I'm hiding with my head to the wall
Who will shelter
me?
It's cold in here
