The Hermit and The Lover 歌词

You walked in like an intruder With every footstep the floor would squeak I was hiding behind the curtain As if we were playing hide and seek You called us the Hermit and the Lover You'd find me, it's in the cards You called us the Hermit and the Lover A frightening stranger to my solitary heart Being with you felt like being alone without loneliness You brought life to this parlor's ghostliness Oh, oh, you brought life to this parlor's ghostliness You came in like a flower That grew out of the hardwood floor Where I was hiding behind the curtain Being part of this parlor's decor You called us the Hermit and the Lover You'd find me, it's in the cards You called us the Hermit and the Lover A frightening stranger to my solitary heart Being with you felt like being alone without loneliness You brought life to this parlor's ghostliness Being with you felt like euphoria without opiates You brought life to this parlor's ghostliness Oh, oh, you brought life to this parlor's ghostliness I'm back again, behind the curtain A place forgotten, covered with dust The velvet and the smell of must Give me comfort and a sense of trust Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Ah, ah, ah, ah Yet you left me staring out of the window With a secret sense of wanderlust Being with you felt like being alone without loneliness You brought life to this parlor's ghostliness Being with you felt like euphoria without opiates You brought life to this parlor's ghostliness Oh, oh, you brought life to this parlor's ghostliness
