crowded house
locked out
I've been locked out I've been locked in But I always seem to come back again When you're in that room What do you do? I know that I will have you in the end And the clouds They're crying on you Snd the birds are offering up their tunes In a shack as remote as a mansion You escape into a place where nothing moves And I've been locked out And I know we're through But I can't begin to face up to the truth I wait so long For the walls to crack But I know that I will one day have you back And the hills Are as soft as a pillow And they cast a shadow on my bed And the view When I look through my window Is an altarpiece I'm praying to For the living and the dead Twin valleys shine in the morning sun I send a message out to my only one Yet I've been locked out And I know we're through But I can't begin to face up to the truth I wait so long For the walls to crack But I know that I will one day have you back (Yes, I will) And I work Like bees in the honey Every night I circle like the moon It's an act Of simple devotion But it can take forever When you've got something to prove.
