If My Heart Was a House
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're the sky that I fell through
And I remember the view
Whenever I'm holding you
The sun hung from a string
Looking down on the world as it warms over everything
Chills run down my spine
As our fingers entwine
And your sighs harmonise with mine
Unmistakably, I can still feel your heart beat fast when you dance with me
We got older and I should've known
(Do you feel alive?)
That I'd feel colder when I walk alone
(Oh, but you'll survive)
So I may as well ditch my dismay
Bombs away, bombs away
Circle me, and the needle moves gracefully
Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North
Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall
Wherever you go, If my heart was a house you'd be home
It makes me smile because you said it best
I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the west
Flower bomb perfume, all my clothes smell like you
Cause your favourite shade is navy blue
I walk slowly when I'm on my own
(Do you feel alive?)
Yeah, but frankly I still feel alone
(Oh, but you'll survive)
So I may as well ditch my dismay
Bombs away, bombs away
Circle me, and the needle moves gracefully
Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North
Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall
Wherever you go, If my heart was a house you'd be home
If my heart was a house you'd be home
