Hammering Heart Lyrics - Del Amitri - Del Amitri

I suppose love lives in a dustbin behind the garden wall 

You have to grovel on the ground 

And be pretty disgusting to find it at all 

And I suppose that it grows on you 

Standing there with no clothes on 

And I suppose because there's beautiful girls in this town 

I'll stay here till I've chosen one 

I suppose life's like a hunt, really 

The hounds have fun until the fox gets bagged 

And not one girl in this town will ever fall in love with me 

They'll get dragged, her heart speaks to me 

Says, the room, the room, the room 

Beneath her dress and I suppose that it beats for me 

Like a hammering moon pulling tides through her chest 

Suppose she says that she owes me 

All that she owns and all that she is 

It seems to me, I suppose that 

Her heart's not enough and her love is a swizz 

So suppose love lives in a mansion 

How the hell do I get over the wall? 

And if my rope's not stretched the right tension 

I won't cross this grand canyon at all 

And I suppose that it grows like a tumor, spreads like a rumor 

Like the grass grows and inch every day 

And I suppose that before I even know it, the tide will start flowing 

And the drum beneath my jacket will say 

You know, you need her everyday 

She is the moon and she showed me her face 

She is the house and she opened the gates
