Porch lights in summer
The breezes on your skin
It carries you, it carries you away
Now I feel the fever
That comes with the sun
And it carries me, it carries me away
And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin
You’re constantly wanting
But forever without
It carries you, it carries you away
Now I feel the winter
Falling down on bended limbs
It carries me away
And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin
Then you came and then you saw
That you never really had love
Then you found that you lost this time
That you never really had much
Ah, this is how we are
And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin
And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin
You constantly want love, but forever without
It carries you, it carries you away.
