This house is echoing

With the sound of You knocking at the door

But with three locks

And the shades down

You are easy to ignore

I put You on like an old pair of shoes

I've put You off, but now I need You



Why, this love that never leaves me

Why are You holding me tonight

Can't deny this love that is given me

Why, this love will never leave



You're a good strategy when I need one

An angle when there is none

Like a doormat

That always says welcome

No matter how much dirt I rub on

But when I am tired and run through

Look over this hill, I'm running to You
