lyrics

HOUSE OF LOVE

You were always my favorite
as I watched you from afar
I bowed and left you standing there
a smile hard like a scar

You said there was a spy
in the house of love
well I caught your spy on the rooftop
sending death from above

Time and a hammer again
all that we built reduced to rubble in our hands
we failed like children fail
somewhere along the way
we were led astray

Honest like a blue man
steady on his way
gentle like a blue moon
in the merry month of May

A certain kind of loneliness
as you go along
a certain kind of poverty
when the day is done

That night you found a black crow
it had a broken wing and of course it wouldn't sing
hate to say I told you so
I´m gonna be more careful
next time somebody makes me a king

so let a bird pick your future
let the beggar be your friend
for what waved farewell in the evening
in the morning might not be back again

Sometimes it gets so hard
to do anything at all
nothing belongs, no poem no song
ever means a thing

And I don´t deny it
I wanted this to end
now that we are surrounded
I miss my wildest friend
And how the weather changed me
every day life starts anew
I know you´re sorry
and I´m sorry too
