| We’re standing
|
| We’re standing
|
| You call that gone?
|
| I’m standing on the firmest ground ever invented
|
| Firm ground I invented
|
| You’re building
|
| Your building
|
| The big door is closing
|
| Came home from work and your house was missing
|
| Told ourselves but we weren’t listening
|
| Do you remember the one who took 'Place in the Sun' from you?
|
| I know you do
|
| He had a heart of tin
|
| And this amazing desire!
|
| The face of a sphinx that smiled
|
| Spit in the lock you’ll find the knob will turn for you
|
| In that golden hotel we can live in the hallway
|
| All of the bedrooms fold into the Perfect Chair
|
| Did you fall in love with someone?
|
| Did you trade «out all night» for some strange sun?
|
| Weren’t you the one…
|
| Fall back in love with someone?
|
| Did you fall in line for someone?
|
| Back down the same road that you came here from
|
| Weren’t you the one
|
| That told me not to
|
| Move around but never through?
|
| That’s the only thing you ever do
|
| You’re building
|
| Your building
|
| The big door is still closing
|
| Came home from work and your house was missing
|
| Told ourselves but we were never listening
|
| Spit in the lock you’ll find the knob will turn for you
|
| In that golden hotel I’m gonna live in the hallway
|
| All of the bedrooms fold into the Perfect Chair
|
| Out on the wall
|
| A hand had begun writing
|
| Everybody understood
|
| That it didn’t mean a thing
|
| I’ll pay it back
|
| I will pay it all back to you
|
| You only have to ask me to
|
| Did you fall in love with someone?
|
| Did you «give up on that» for some strange sun?
|
| Weren’t you the one…
|
| Fall back in love with someone?
|
| Did you fall in line for someone?
|
| Back down the same road that you came here from
|
| Weren’t you the one
|
| That told me not to
|
| Move around but never through?
|
| That’s the only thing we ever do |
