The House, the Street, the Room Songtext
von Gentle Giant

The room and street are known only to me and a few
I won′t tell nobody
A place to meet where no-one can tell you what to do
I won't tell nobody

Here, awake in sleep together


My time is spent in chains and confusion in my head
I don′t tell nobody
I keep my pains and swallow the harsh tears that I shed
I don't tell nobody

Here, in reverie together

I find escape in the street, in the house, in the room
I become somebody
I cast my die and leave all my troubles in the room
I become somebody

Here, awake in sleep together
