I know you're home, you left your light on
You know I'm here, the night is thin
I know you're alone, I watched the car leave
Your lover is gone, let me in
Open your back door, I just need to touch you once more
(chorus:)
I want to come over
To hell with the consequence
You told me you love me
That's all I believe
I want to come over, it's a need I can't explain
To see you again
I want to come over
I know your friend, you told her about me
She filled you with fear, some kind of sin
How can you turn, denying the fire
Lover, I burn, let me in
Open your back door, I just need to touch you once more
(chorus)
I know you're confused, I know that you're shaken
You think we'll be lost once we begin
I know you're weak, I know that you want me
Lover, don't speak, let me in
(chorus)Pulled in the driveway, picked up the paper
Found my key, and unlocked the door
I walked in, felt like a stranger
Like I'd never been there before
As I wandered room to room
It was silent as a tomb
Could have heard a teardrop
Could have heard a heartbreak
Never saw the flood come
Even though I felt the rain
Never heard a house sound
So loud with memories
Where there used to be
A happy home
In the house on the corner
Of Lonely and Gone
If she talked about leaving, I wasn't listening
If she showed me a sign, well I never saw
Did she stop believing, did I stop giving
Can't put my finger on what went wrong
Now the quietest noise I'm told, is the sound of letting go
Could have heard a teardrop
Could have heard a heartbreak
Never saw the flood come, even though I felt the rain
Never heard a house sound, so loud with memories
Where there used to be a happy home
In the house on the corner
Of Lonely and Gone
Whoa...Never heard a house sound
So loud with memories
Where there used to be a happy home
In the house on the corner
In the house on the corner
Of Lonely and Gone
