What among the lovers

What twang of temptation

What brought the house down

Strange sleepwalkers on the block

Unfamiliar writing on the ceiling

When she looks up


Momma buried pop atop the roof where he slept

One leg on each side of pointed shingles

Latest tests prove that she's happier with more

The oyster is open for any to pearl


Still she's got three different lullablies to sing

These fruited images are delicacies


Was it the fighting was it the fist

Was it adventure with a jealous twist

Was it desire for another's kiss

What brought the house down


Turmoil and passion such wondrous things

What they called Summer lovers happening in Spring

Who's dreaming of who tonight

Who'll be walking by your side

At the dawning's first light


Do all he can to save a soon to be dead past

Give it all up to find a new way that will last


Was she wrong to hold his heart another person's hand

The grass is always greener 'til it's covered up with sand

Was it other things

Fate, felicity

What rousing temptation


She knew that love could swell without barricades

Standards must be broken even these

Now she has three different lullabies to sing

These fruited images lead her to sleep


Was it the fighting was it the fist

Was it adventure with a jealous twist

Was it desire for another's kiss

What brought the house down
