Blue Rodeo - House Of Dreams lyrics

rate me

Can't stand the sight of myself <br />

Lying in bed all day with the curtains drawn <br />

Staring at the clock on the window ledge <br />

The angry words you said come back so strong <br />

<br />

Sometimes love quits <br />

Oh when the pieces don't fit <br />

And suddenly all your world <br />

Falls to the floor <br />

And all your wild days <br />

<br />

Oh fall away <br />

Can't see much point in them anymore <br />

I let you walk like a ghost unseen <br />

In this house of dreams <br />

Girl on the day you left <br />

Out walked my everything <br />

<br />

Must have thought you'd always be there <br />

I never even noticed when the changes came one day <br />

Seems one minute you were standing close <br />

I turned around again <br />

And girl you were far away <br />

<br />

And every plan we made <br />

Oh I just let them fade <br />

And pile up on the floor <br />

Beside the bed <br />

Now you're gone away <br />

Oh but your memory stays <br />

I sit here thinking of the things I never said <br />

<br />

In this house of dreams <br />

I let you walk like a ghost unseen <br />

Out walked my everything <br />

Girl on the day you left <br />

<br />

Sometimes love quits <br />

Oh when the pieces don't fit <br />

Falls to the floor <br />

And suddenly all your world <br />

Oh but your memory stays <br />

In this house of dreams <br />

I hear your voice behind every single door <br />

I let you walk like a ghost unseen <br />

Now you're gone away <br />

<br />

Girl on the day you left <br />

Out walked my everything
