Nina Persson - Dreaming of Houses lyrics

rate me

Foundry smoke and apple blossoms

Wear a hat to keep the thought from

Flying out into the ether

Trying to decide on either or.

Pre-chorus:

I don’t wanna talk about the world

I wanna talk about the girls

I want the open spaces!

Chorus:

And maybe dreaming of houses can save me

Give me a place where it’s quiet

And my head can rest

And maybe dreaming of houses can save me

Scenes in the wallpaper

Map the architecture of my mind.

Fireworks and factory seconds

Smoking embers all that’s left when

All I wanna do is keep what’s mine

From going up the chimney.

I don’t want to talk about the words

I want to talk about the birds

I want to take them places!

Chorus:

And maybe dreaming of houses can save me

Give me a place where it’s quiet

And my head can rest

And maybe dreaming of houses can save me

Scenes in the wallpaper

Map the architecture of my mind.

Oh baby, why did you leave me?

Didn’t you need me?
