Vanessa Carlton - House of Seven Words lyrics

[Verse 1] Strength and devotion come without warning You'll know when you know what to do No simple scheming, you should be sleeping Sometimes you just can't think it through [Chorus] That's the way it is, love Go whichever way you need to go Nobody can tell you how to build Your House of Seven Swords That's the way it is, love Together and yet still we're on our own Nobody can tell us how to build Our house of seven swords [Verse 2] Shaman won't tell you Preacher will try to You could take your time and take a trip [Verse 3] Let your eyes see hidden things Your heart beat like a drum Your eyes see hidden things Your heart beat like a drum [Chorus] [Interlude] That's the way it is, love That's the way it is, love Your house of seven swords [Outro] That's the way it is, love Together and yet, still, we're on our own Nobody can tell us how to build Our house of seven swords
