Mary Chapin Carpenter - House Of Cards |
| [00:08.66] |
I grew up in a house like this |
| [00:11.60] |
|
| [00:12.72] |
You knew the groan of every stair |
| [00:14.90] |
|
| [00:15.66] |
All the walls seemed to listen in |
| [00:18.40] |
|
| [00:19.16] |
All the years seemed to take up air |
| [00:22.03] |
|
| [00:22.90] |
And when you dreamed it was of the wind blowing cold and hard |
| [00:28.28] |
|
| [00:29.77] |
And in those dreams you thought you lived in a house of cards |
| [00:36.96] |
|
| [00:42.15] |
And I grew up in a town like this |
| [00:44.96] |
|
| [00:46.02] |
You knew the names of every street |
| [00:48.28] |
|
| [00:49.09] |
On the surface it looked so safe |
| [00:51.96] |
|
| [00:52.77] |
But it was perilous underneath |
| [00:55.53] |
|
| [00:56.15] |
Thats the place where you shoved your doubts |
| [00:59.15] |
|
| [00:59.84] |
and hid your ugly scars |
| [01:01.97] |
|
| [01:03.27] |
God forbid if word got out about your house of cards |
| [01:09.83] |
|
| [01:12.33] |
And now I feel the wind about to blow |
| [01:15.71] |
|
| [01:16.27] |
Baby Im so scared |
| [01:18.40] |
|
| [01:19.28] |
Were repeating the past instead of letting it go |
| [01:22.65] |
|
| [01:23.27] |
And I dont want to go back there |
| [01:27.90] |
|
| [02:03.46] |
Now were standing here face to face |
| [02:06.09] |
|
| [02:06.89] |
Afraid to move or else |
| [02:09.52] |
|
| [02:10.27] |
I want to prop up this fragile place |
| [02:13.21] |
|
| [02:13.78] |
But I cant do it all by myself |
| [02:16.71] |
|
| [02:17.40] |
Cause when we dream its of the wind blowing cold and hard |
| [02:23.33] |
|
| [02:24.33] |
And when we wake up we still live in a house of cards |
| [02:30.40] |
|
| [02:31.34] |
When we dream its of the wind blowing cold and hard |
| [02:37.02] |
|
| [02:38.46] |
And when we wake up we still live in a house of cards |
