House Of Love
East 17 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody
everybody in the house of love
hey
Everybody
everybody in the house of love
hey
Everybody
everybody in the house of love
hey
One love - one god

Everybody in the house of love
Everybody in the house of love
One love - one god
Everybody in the house of love

We've got to stop the pain
And put the the wars on hold
Let the power of love inside the soul unfold
Free the mind
let it rise above
We've gotta change this world
To a world of love
Mother Earth she's on overload
One more war and she might explode
We've got to look back
And see a love from the past
We've got time to change it
But it's running out fast (out fast)

Not bothered about your colour
Concerned about your creed
in the house of love - elverybody's free

Everybody in the house of love ...

How many more tears must she cry
How many more fears must be felt inside
Before we realise we've gone too far
The creator created
We tone it apart
But love can guide us
Back on the right road
We've gotta save the planet before she explodes
We've gotta love our mother

Gotta let her know
Boom boom - before she blows
Not bothered about religion
Not bothered about belief
in the house of love - everybody's free

Everybody in the house of love ...

Born to live - we live to die
Our eyes can't see they can only cry
But our mother's tired of crying she's had enough
She's gotta surely blow 'cos we're giving up
Build the house oflove while we've got the time
Too many bombs in the world it's like a living mine
The house of love is what we must build
The past won't last
If the present is killed





Everybody in the house of love ...
