Porch lights in summer
The breezes on your skin
It carries you, it carries you away

Now I feel the fever
That comes with the sun
And it carries me, it carries me away

And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin

You're constantly wanting
But forever without
It carries you, it carries you away
Now I feel the winter
Falling down on bended limbs
It carries me away

And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin

Then you came and then you saw
That you never really had love
Then you found that you lost this time
That you never really had much

Ah, this is how we are

And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin

And this is the house I built
And this is the howling wind
This is where I fall out
This is where I begin

You constantly want love, but forever without

It carries you, it carries you away.
