In My House

(album: The Modern Bop - 1984)

I clean all the windows in my house
I sweep and I vacuum the stairs
Spring cleaning in my house
I open up the doors and let the wind blow through
I want everything to be nice for you

In my house
Whoa, in my house

Ah, they say there are spirits in my house
And rooms that have never been seen
High ceilings in my house
I search through the drawers for a sign or clue
No strange noises to frighten you

In my house
Yes, in my house
Whoa, in my house
Yes, in my house

Awake and awaiting the tie that binds
Can I trust in the union that reveals as it blinds
Here we are not knowing what's before or behind

It's been a long time alone here in my house
You know it's hard when somebody departs
Oh, but one time it was our house
But now I open up the blinds, let the sunshine in
No dark corners hide within

In my house
In my house
Yes, in my house
Whoa, in my house
Yes, in my house
In my house
Whoa, in my house
Yes, in my house

Awake and awaiting the tie that binds
Can I trust in the union that reveals as it blinds
In my house
Yes, in my house
Oh, in my house
Yes, in my house
