Vanessa Carlton
House of Seven Swords
[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]
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
[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
