A house with many rooms

in a house with many rooms
all with a part of my life
I'm dusting them one by one
see what I find

it's bits and pieces
and I don't see what I like
been making some wrong turns
those doors are closing in my face
got to open them up again

and I can't let go of those memories
they're so much a part of me
even though they're bad
they're all I ever had

I seem to have lost the key
a world has turned me out
gonna build a new one
those doors will open loud

and the house it will be standing
as it always did with closed doors
they will open up once more
with the many rooms
with all the memories

so let me live my life
I've lived hard and long
it will pass
and I'll walk along

slow pain

there's a slow pain penetrating my heart
I think somehow, I'm almost certain it has
reached each an' ev'ry part

it must be love, there's a slow pain
penentrating my heart, strong talk
is what you have

talk of what it is to be on top of things
seems so very important, I don't need
it so much

only thing I can think of is, is in it in
you to love, 'cause a slow pain's
penetrating my heart

all the strong talk, cannot disguise
cannot even hide, what''s goin' on
inside

what's happening to you, can only guess
what I see, it must be love you need
something you could get

if you just don't let it be, now you've
stopped, your eyes lock into mine with
a strange tempting look

an' you feel a slow pain rise, it shows
in your eyes, I read in it your thoughts
I know what you've got

a slow pain's penetrating your...
heart

Even though they're bad

in a house with many rooms all
with a part of my life, I'm dustin'
them one by one see what I find

it's bits an' pieces an' I don't see
what I like, been makin' some
wrong turns, those doors are
closin' in my face

got to open ém up again, an' I
can't let go of those memories
they're so much a part of me

even though they're bad they're
all I ever had, seem to have lost
the key

a world has turned me out gonna
build me a new one, those doors
will open, cryin' out loud

'cause I can't let go of those memories
they're so much a part of me, even though
they're bad they're all I ever had

and the house will be standin' as
it always did with the closed doors
with the many rooms,

with all the memories, it will open up
once more, 'cause I can't let go of those
memories,

they're so much a part of me, even though
they're bad they're all I ever had, so let me
live my life

I've lived hard an' long, it'll pass an'
I will walk along
