Lyrics
When the soul of the city Was laid to rest And the nights forgotten and left for dead Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh I happened on a house Built of living light Where everything evil disappears and dies Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh When they love you, and they will Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down Tell 'em all to go to hell When they love you, and they will Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down Tell 'em all to go to hell I settled in slowly, to this house that you call home To blood and breath, fear, flesh and bone Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Blush of our bodies in the heat of the night All day the day after, reddened the skies Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh When they love you, and they will, (and they will) Tell em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down, (slow you down) Tell em all to go to hell When they love you, and they will, (and they will) Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down, (slow you down) Tell 'em all to go to hell It's a lifeless life, with no fixed address to give But you're not mine to die for anymore So I must live Born of a bottle, from heaven's hand And now you know and here I am Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh When they love Me and they will, (and they will) Tell 'em all they'll love in your shadow And if they try to slow me down, (slow you down) Tell 'em all to go to hell When they love you, and they will, (and they will) Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down, (slow you down) Tell 'em all to go to hell When they love you, and they will, (and they will) Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down, (slow you down) Tell 'em all to go to hell When they love you, and they will, (and they will) Tell 'em all they'll love in my shadow And if they try to slow you down, (slow you down) Tell 'em all to go to hell
