House Of Broken Love Lyrics
Come the mornin' don't ya wake me
I'll be dreamin' that I'm free
Come the daybreak don't ya shake me
Send me back to misery
Cause I'm dealin' with the devil
With no help from above
I'm dealin' with the devil
In this house of broken love
Takin' chances with you baby
I saw something in your eyes
And though no one else could blame me
There were signs I shoulda recognized
Now I'm dealin' with the devil
With no help from above
I'm sleepin' with the devil
In this house of broken love....broken love
If you don't wanna lose my lovin'
Use it constantly
If it's gonna be lies, suspicious eyes
Baby oh baby set me free
When the night falls and she's leavin'
Ooo the moon shines cold and grey
Hear my heartbeat yeah yeah hear me weepin'
Pain and sorrow's here to stay
I begged you baby help me
But you turned your back on me
You didn't even listen
You should have set me free
Now I'm leavin' with the devil
Gonna leave this search for love
I'm Leavin' with the devil
Leave this house of broken love
I'll be dreamin' that I'm free
Come the daybreak don't ya shake me
Send me back to misery
With no help from above
I'm dealin' with the devil
In this house of broken love
I saw something in your eyes
And though no one else could blame me
There were signs I shoulda recognized
With no help from above
I'm sleepin' with the devil
In this house of broken love....broken love
Use it constantly
If it's gonna be lies, suspicious eyes
Baby oh baby set me free
Ooo the moon shines cold and grey
Hear my heartbeat yeah yeah hear me weepin'
Pain and sorrow's here to stay
But you turned your back on me
You didn't even listen
You should have set me free
Gonna leave this search for love
I'm Leavin' with the devil
Leave this house of broken love

One of my favorite songs. this in my opinion was the best song off of "...Twice Shy" which was released in 1989 and had four hit singles. The other ones were "The Angel Song", "Once Bitten, Twice Shy", and "Mista Bone".
I totally agree.
This song is clearly about being involved with a woman who turned out to be much different than she represented when meeting. Life with her is a living hell, hence the wanting to not be shakin' awake cause that will send him back to misery. He will be in misery as soon as he wakes. She is extremely beautiful, but he missed those signs because of her beauty. She lies to him, looks at him like he has done something wrong. In the end decides it is best to leave, to forget about finding love for now.
