Caroline Romano - This House

Verse 1
I could bounce a quarter off the bedspread that I sat here and
Remade, and I wait
You were in the kitchen being lovely, so I try not to replay
How you made me feel yesterday

Pre-Chorus
Put on my best clothes for you, it's just what I'd do
If you stood in my shoes, would you see it too?

Chorus
So I set the table and you'll pull the cloth in, when
I paint a fresh coat, you draw on the walls and you've
Got me convinced this is just how you'll love and it's
Not your fault for burning this house
It's mine for building it up

Verse 2
Do you think I'm just so sad and pretty, like an actress from the 50s?
She will die if you'rе not here
And you look like Achillеs in his prime, how dare I try
To be your heel?

Pre-Chorus
So I put on my best clothes for you, it's just what I'd do
If you stood in my shoes, would you love you too?

Chorus
So I set the table and you'll pull the cloth in, when
I paint a fresh coat, you draw on the walls and you've
Got me convinced this is just how you'll love and it's
Not your fault for burning this house
It's mine for building it up (it's mine for b—)

Bridge
I'm a good girl
That's what you say
I adore you
You come home late
I'm a good girl (I wanna be like you)
That's what you say (Heaven knows I tried to)
(I wanna be like you)
That I have made too much of this (I wanna be like you)
And there is nothing here to miss (I wanna be like you)
While you set the curtains in flames (Heaven knows I tried to)
(I wanna be just like you)

Chorus
So I set the table and you'll pull the cloth in, when
I paint a fresh coat, you draw on the walls and you've
Got me convinced this is just how you'll love and it's
Not your fault for burning this house (for burning this house)
It's mine for building it up
Outro
I wanna be like you (I'm a good girl), I wanna be like you
Heaven knows I tried to (That's what you say), I wanna be like you
I wanna be like you (That's what you say), I wanna be like you
Heaven knows I tried to (That's what you say), I wanna be like you
