Heart of Chambers
Beach House Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In your heart of chambers
Where you sit
With your picture books
And your ancient wit
In that nook I found you
Sold and tired
Would you be the one to carry me?

I'd like to be someone
You could finally learn to love again

Made our iron bedside
Cold as graves
So we stoke the organs
That make our blood race
And they've conjured spirits
To make you smile
Would you be my long time baby?

I'd like to be someone
You could finally learn to

We've put our woes
Down by our sides
Let's take the time
To mend these smiles
Together we could make it home
Lovely surprise
Live our own lives

In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun

Overall Meaning

"Heart of Chambers" by Beach House is a song that explores a relationship that is in need of mending. The song paints a picture of a person who is tired and sold, sitting in their heart of chambers with their picture books and ancient wit. The singer has found this person and questions if they could be the one to carry them. This shows the vulnerability of the singer and their need for someone to help them through a tough time.


The next part of the song showcases how the two individuals have made their iron bedside cold as graves. The organs that make their blood race have conjured spirits to make the other person smile. The singer then asks if this person would be their long-time baby. The lyrics show the desire for love and commitment, and a hope that they will be able to find love in each other once again.


The final part of the song is a call to put their woes down and mend their smiles. The singer suggests coming together to make it home and live their own lives. The repetition of "in our beds, we're the lucky ones, fill us with the sun" signifies the hope for a brighter future, and a hope that they can move forward from their current struggles.


Line by Line Meaning

In your heart of chambers
Deep within your heart and soul


Where you sit
Where you contemplate and reflect


With your picture books
With the memories and experiences captured in photographs


And your ancient wit
And the wisdom you have accumulated over time


In that nook I found you
In that hidden and private corner of your mind


Sold and tired
Feeling worn out and defeated


Would you be the one to carry me?
Can you be the support I need in my life?


I'd like to be someone
I wish to become the person


You could finally learn to love again
That would make you feel loved once more


Made our iron bedside
Our once strong and sturdy refuge


Cold as graves
Now feeling lifeless and empty


So we stoke the organs
We reignite the passions and desires


That make our blood race
That make us feel alive


And they've conjured spirits
These passions have inspired and awakened us


To make you smile
To bring joy and happiness to your life


Would you be my long time baby?
Can we be together for a long time?


We've put our woes
We've set aside our troubles


Down by our sides
Out of sight and out of mind


Let's take the time
Let's make the effort


To mend these smiles
To heal our broken spirits and find happiness again


Together we could make it home
We can create a place of belonging and security together


Lovely surprise
A beautiful and unexpected gift


Live our own lives
Forge our own paths and follow our unique passions


In our beds, we're the lucky ones
We're fortunate to have each other and a place to rest


Fill us with the sun
Let us be filled with warmth and happiness


In our beds, we're the lucky ones
We're lucky to wake up each day and have another chance to live


Fill us with the sun
Give us hope and positivity


In our beds, we're the lucky ones
In the comfort of our beds, we have everything we need


Fill us with the sun
Bring light into our lives

Heart of Chambers. . . lyrics

Beach House

In your heart of chambers
Where you sit
With your picture books
And your ancient wit
In that nook I found you
So old and tired
Would you be the one to carry me?

I'd like to be someone
You could finally learn to love again

Made our iron bed side
Cold as graves
So we stole the organs
That make up the grace
And they've conjured spirits
To make you smile
Would you be my long time baby?

I'd like to be someone
You could finally learn to...

We've put our walls down at our sides
Let's take the time to mend these smiles
Together we could make it home
Love is a prize
Live our own lives

In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun



Henry McCarty

In your heart of chambers where you sit
With your picture books and your ancient wit
In that nook I found you, sold and tired
Would you be the one to carry me?
I'd like to be someone
You could finally learn to love again

Made our iron bedside, cold as grace
So we stoke the organs that make our blood race
And they've conjured spirits to make you smile
Would you be my long-time baby?

I'd like to be someone
You could finally learn to...
We've put our woes down by our side
Let's take the time to mend these smiles
Together we could make it home
Lovely surprise
Live our own lives

In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
In our beds, we're the lucky ones
Fill us with the sun
