Marble House Lyrics - The Knife

I cut your nails and comb your hair 

I carry you down the stairs 

I wanted to see right through from the other side 

I wanted to walk a trail with no end in sight 

The moment we believe that we have never met 

Another kind of love it's easy to forget 

When we are all alone then we do both agree 

We have a thing in common this was meant to be 

You close my eyes and soothe my ears 

You heal my wounds and dry my tears 

On the inside of this marble house I grow 

And the seeds I sow will grow up prisoners too 

The moment we believe that we have never met 

Another kind of love it's easy to forget 

When we are all alone then we do both agree 

We have a thing in common this was meant to be 

Now where's your shoulder 

What is it's name 

What's your scent 

Say it again 

If it goes faster can you still follow me 

It must be safe when it's on TV 

I raise my hands to heaven of curiosity 

I don't know what to ask for 

What has it got for me? 

The others say we're hiding 

It's as forward as can be 

Some things I do for money 

Some things I do for free
