Five Room Love Story Lyrics - Cowboy Junkies

I met her in a church on a Sunday evening 

not late on Saturday night 

She sang Ave Maria 

a little flat and out of time 

but that's what drew me to her 

so that's alright 

As she placed a nickle in the basket 

that I held before her 

I asked her to be my wife 

 

And there's one cardboard heart 

for every time you said "I love you" 

A painted star for every secret that we shared 

A dried lima bean and small plastic birds 

because you cared

I hear their talk and I watch them swap 

their old black and whites 

Bitter and beaten 

they talk of life's cheatin' 

like old boxers comparing scars 

 

All I remember is a smile at the top of every working morning 

and a shoulder always willing and able 

and all those nights that we'd spend just sitting 

and talking around our kitchen table 

 

And there's one cardboard heart 

for every time you said "I love you" 

A painted star for every secret that we shared 

A dried lima bean and small plastic birds 

because you cared

Five rooms made stronger by the breaking and the healing 

of the two hearts they protected within 

Now one heart left aching 

just piecing and painting 

these walls with the memories of all that is real 

 

And there's one cardboard heart 

for every time you said "I love you" 

A painted star for every secret that we shared 

A dried lima bean and small plastic birds 

because you cared 

 

And there's one cardboard heart 

for every time you said "I love you" 

A painted star for every secret that we shared 

A dried lima bean and small plastic birds 

because you cared
