lyrics

once you have entered
the house
everything is there
won't you just
come in

all this
here
within
yes
all this
is here, in here
yes, it's in
it's inside

all you do is talk to me
like somebody
that I don't know

all you do is just
tell me things
that I never never want to know
ahhh, yes

all that I can do, darling
is just sit here
and just sit here
is just sit here, yes
is just sit here and wait
for you
for you to come home
come home, darling
come home, darling

oh, all I do is
oh, all I do is
oh, ahh ahh
(oh, what time is it)
oh, you'll live through it and
(oh, what you darling)
oh, you can do it
(oh it's your)
and oh, you know when
(time to go back inside)
something went on, yes
you know when love gone wrong, yes
you know when you sit there
just wasting everybody's time
and you just think that you're feeling fine
well, I know
oh, I know

(darling, don't you know)
I'm tired
(darling, don't you see)
I'm so, so tired
(darling, don't you have the key)
of climbing this building, baby
with you in my hand
I'm tired
(I'm tired of going up this building)
of going up this mountain, baby
going up this mountain, baby
(I'm so tired)
just tired
(where's the top of it?)
of doing these things, baby
of doing these things, baby

do you know why
why we just all end up
saying goodbye
(you know)
goodbye, goodbye
angels come and say goodbye

(how low can you go)
can you hear me
and darling you know
you're just floating away now
(it's so dark)
