The House - Katie Melua

Who is in that house?

I opened the door to see

Who is up the stairs?

I’m walking up foolishly

And at the end of the hall was a door

And I got pulled in by a sound

But I wish I’d never found

In the privacy of your own room

Where flowers in the wallpaper bloom

Where I just don’t understand

In the privacy of your room

Look away now, look away now

At the moon

Is somebody watching me?

You really shouldn’t see

Why did you climb that last stair

You found me unaware

What I’m doing now it’s my own

And I don’t want it to be known

And it has to just remain

In the privacy of my own room

Where flowers in the wallpaper bloom

Where you just don’t understand

In the privacy of my room

Look away now, look away now

At the moon

Puzzle me now with mystery clothes

These apples I love, these apples I loath

And always forgive the future to come

For stealing the light from the sun
