LYRICS i prayed to the stars for a love as deep as it was free then you came along and opened up your sanctuary to me walking thru your rooms safe in your arms but you don’t know the shadow in my heart
(take a walk thru your house, a place to start again this could have been heaven, but i let the devil in)
underneath the carpet buried in a kiss i cannot hide it how much longer must i twist is it nearly over? are we near the end? only you can tell me how much longer must i twist in the wind?
(in your house) i started a fire in your house
after all of the words have been spoken will these four walls remain but the fear that grips me as we speak is that we’ll never be the same
smoke in the bedroom underneath the door the heat is rising i can’t breathe in the temperature is it nearly over? are we near the end? only you can tell me how much longer must i twist in the wind?
(in your house) i started a fire in your house
in Zulu Lomshika shika wendaba wawushisa umuzi wami (Awubheke!)
this struggle, pulling in opposite directions of this complex affair has burned my home (just look at this!)
you don’t know the shadow in my heart...
what burns in the fire we’ll find again in the ashes
