House

Elton John

This is my house

This is where I live

That is the winter

Those are the trees

I can hear them breathe

This is my bed

This is where I sleep

That was the dark

Those are my dreams

They belong to me

This is my floor

This is where I lie

This is a square room

That was a bright light

These are not my eyes

What is my soul

Where is my tired heart

That is the question

Where is the answer

Inside my house

And I sit by the window

And I wish I was rain

I want to fall from the sky

I want to get wet all over again

'Cause this my house

It belongs to me

Inside my head

It's all that's left

This is my house

This is my bed

This is where I sleep

That was the dark

Those are my dreams

They belong to me

This is my house
