I live in a house of cards

Made of people I know

It shelters me every day

My house is a part of the world

Where live and let love

Is all we have to say



And if you want you can go there

All you have to do is believe and

Open your eyes and you can see them

The little truths are scattered all around

In the middle of the madness

In the place where quiet can be found

If you don't see that or believe that

They disappear without a sound

Cause we all live in a house of cards

Take one away and they all come tumbling down

They all come falling down



I live in a crazy world

Full of crazy things

That I never quite understand

But I know that the people that care for you

Are the measure of any woman or any man



And if you need anything then I'll share

If I need you would you be there



Open your eyes and you can see them

The little truths are scattered all around

In the middle of the madness

In the place where quiet can be found

If you don't see that or believe that

They disappear without a sound

Cause we all live in a house of cards

Take one away and they all come tumbling down

They all come falling down



Hold on to what is close to you

Cause letting it go (Of your soul so baby)



Open your eyes and you can see them

The little truths are scattered all around

In the middle of the madness

In the place where quiet can be found

If you don't see that or believe that

They disappear without a sound

Cause we all live in a house of cards

Take one away and they all come tumbling down

They all come falling down
