Playing House

lyrics

Well damn, I've done it again
Done it again:
I've shown my cards too fast.
And it's a crying shame,
A crying shame
Cause he doesn't think it's meant to last

And why do I give myself over
Expecting I'll get in return?
Oh, I could cry
I could cry
But a river of my tears
Wouldn't move him anymore

Well damn,
Fallen again, fallen again
Trying to run in the dark
And it's a crying shame
A crying shame;
We were off to a beautiful start

And why do we call ourselves lovers
When love is the last thing he wants
Oh, I could cry
I could cry
An ocean of tears
Can't reach his island heart

So in the end it turns out
We were just playing house

Well damn, I've done it again
Done it again:
I've shown my cards too fast.
And it's a crying shame,
A crying shame
Cause he doesn't think it's meant to last

And why do I give myself over
Expecting I'll get in return?
Oh, I could cry
I could cry
But a river of my tears
Wouldn't move him anymore

So in the end it turns out
We were just playing house

You're not the first to tell me I ask too much
And most likely you won't be the last
All I want is a home
A real little home that's not as fragile as glass
