I see the house burning down
The pillars, the porch and the roof
The curtains that light up the room
Right where they left you on the floor
So it comes and goes, everyone will tell you so
The ceiling's falling down around your feet
Right where they left you, right where they left you
Right where they left you, oh, right where they left you on the floor
It comes and goes, everyone will tell you so
The ceiling's falling down around your feet
You see it now, you're calling out
I see the house burning down
And I won't let you leave
Yeah, I sit and watch from the street
The smokes rising outside your room
Where you let gra** grow under your feet
Right where they left you, right where I left you
Oh darling I love you, but this just might be
A feeling that just comes and goes, don't say I didn't tell you so
I see it all come down around your feet
I see it now, you're calling out
But I can't let you leave
