The Veils - The House She Lived In lyrics

The house she lived in Is now all we're left with It'll take a lifetime to pay for this All the nuns were singin' And the crowds were immense All the papers wrote it a different way Those known desires Her first admirers Who claimed that they were her favourite But I know that it was Me alone she loved Though I still have nothing to show for it Ain't no calling you back I just want you to know I have your voice in my head and your frame on the wall It all went wrong but I wish you could stay with me Love, stay with me Her brother John says Ain't sure if she's dead Or just hiding somewhere away from him We all still remember That cold December With your lawn ablaze and your razor blade drawn Ain't no calling you back I just want you to know I have your voice in my head and your frame on the wall It all went wrong but I wish you'd have stayed with me Have stayed with me Oh, love When it's cold, love That's when I know. love That's when I know Oh, oh, oh, oh Well now it all gone I know I'll see you in the flowers Now it's all done Yeah, I'll lay down there for hours Now it's all gone I can see you in the flowers Oh honey, won't you come home? I'd offer my soul If I thought it might help at all If I thought it might help at all And I'd follow you down that road If I thought it might help at all If I thought it might help at all
