House Of Love Lyrics

    (difford/tilbrook)

    She was full of lies and boredom
    It came as no surprise that she would cheat
    Her nails were long and sharp
    But she didn't play the harp
    She wasn't an angel i told her
    But she wasn't able to understand my words
    Rich pickings in reverse
    I wasn't shakespeare
    It's simple
    Did she expect me
    To kiss her feet

    A very acidic tongue
    Waggled in her head
    Life was lots of fun
    At times i had to smile
    In front of everyone
    We seemed the best of friends
    Life had just begun
    When on the roof a tile began to slip
    The house of love caved in and that was it

    She was full of tears by nature
    It came to me so clear that she would creep
    Her eyes were stale and spun
    Like marbles in the sun
    She wasn't a princess i told her
    And so i witnessed the slaying of my life
    That lasted half the night

    I wasn't jesus
    Believe me
    Our love was seedless
    And incomplete
