Jazz in the House
Clemens Rumpf and David A. Tobin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now love is pouring through the windows
Comin' through the doorI can feel it
Creepin' through the cracks in the floor
Bouncin' off the walls and the ceilin' up above
Since I found you I'm livin' in a house of love
All of my life my heart's been walked on
Women said they loved me my how they talked on
Tellin' me lies
And fillin' my eyes with tears that I couldn't control
I couldn't get a hold of myself long enough to realize
They were only tryin' to pull the wool over my eyes
I found you then the skies turned blue
I'm livin' in a house of love
Once I lived in a hole like a rabbit
I couldn't find love the blues were a habit
A lonely man and I couldn't understand
Why everything I tried went wrong
'Til you came along bless your heart and showed me
The right wayYou dried my eyes and turned my night to day




And I'm so proud I wanna holler out loud
Tell the world about my house of love
