"A Heart Is A House For Love"

A heart is a house for love
And I learned (I learned) that it don't take much to build it up. (Build it up.)
Build it up, build it up, build it up.
Ooh

Two wrongs don't make it right,
But too long was the night I kept you guessing.
It's all I can do, (All I can do.)
And hope that maybe you'll come around again.
Now I see that the wonder of devotion,
It doesn't, it doesn't come free.

A heart is a house for love
And I learned (I learned) that it don't take much to break.
A heart is a house for love
And I learned (I learned) that it don't take much to build it up.
Oh

Today I understand,
I'll pay the price to be all the man you need.
You know you got to be free.
(Go find your way.) Go find your way,
Find your way back to me.
Now I see (I see) that the wonder of devotion,
It doesn't, it doesn't come free.

A heart is a house for love
And I learned (I learned) that it don't take much to break.
A heart is a house for love
And I learned (I learned) that it don't take much to build it up. Build it up.
A heart is a house for love
And I learned, I learned, I learned (I learned) that it don't take much to break.
A heart is a house for love, hey, hey, hey.
I learned that it don't take much to build it up.
Build it up, build it up, build it up.
Oh, yeah.
Build it up, build it up, build it up (Mm)

Build it up together either near or far.
(Oh, oh, oh)
Build a house full of hearts to stand it all.
Is there a heart,
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
Stand up. (Stand up)
Stand up, let me know.
Let me know that you understand.
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
You got to have love (You got to have love.)
Love in your heart tonight.

Build it up together and then it won't fall.
Build it up.
Build a house full of hearts to withstand it all.
Two hearts are better than one.
Build it up together and then it won't fall.
Two hearts belong together.
Build a house full of hearts to withstand it all.
Build it up.
Is there a heart,
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
Stand up. (Stand up)
Stand up, let me know that you understand.
Better listen to me.
Love doesn't come free, you gotta build it up.
Is there a heart,
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
Stand up. (Stand up)
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
One love, our love, your love, somewhere, somebody.
Is there a heart,
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
Is there a heart in your house tonight.
Is there a heart in your house tonight.

Always, never out my mind.
You're always on my mind.
I love, love, love, love you all the time.
(Build it up, build it up, build it up.)
Oh, build it up. (A heart is a house for love.) Build it up.
Build it up, build it up.
Build it up. (A heart is a house for love.)
Let me know that you understand.
(Build it up, build it up, build it up.)
A heart is a house for love.
