[Verse 1]

Take off your shoes but don't just leave them in the doorway

Your mum is hosting people over from the old days

Hit up a girl and tell her that you miss the old ways

You used to kiss out in the rain

Pull down your blinds you're all alone, your show is loading

Looking for love but your selection keeps on moulding

Ball’s in your court but the ball just keeps on rolling

It’s rolling and rolling away


[Chorus]

Singing oh-oo-oh

What makes it pretty house a home-oo-oh

When you’re just living all alone

You think you’re happy

But you know

You’ll need somebody to hold


[Verse 2]

It's hard to eat with nobody across the table

It's hard to speak when all you've got are all these labels

Thought you made peace with the life that you had made

But this unstable feeling you can't seem to shake

You turn pennies into dollars and then dollars back to Dimes

You spend plenty every night turning your water into wine

So many reasons to stop the flow of time

But it keeps blowing and blowing away


[Chorus]

Singing oh-oo-oh

What makes it pretty house a home-oo-oh

When you’re just living all alone

You think you’re happy

But you know

You’ll need somebody


[Bridge]

Now you're holding onto something that's stolen

And all these empty emotions can feel the ocean blue

And I'm choking on words that were left unspoken

Give me some time to open the doors closing on you

Now you're holding onto something that's broken


[Chorus]

Singing oh-oo-oh

What makes it pretty house a home-oo-oh?

When you’re just living all alone

You think you’re happy

But you know

You’ll need somebody you can hold

What makes it pretty house a home-oo-oh?

When you’re just living all alone

You think you’re happy

But you know

You’ll need somebody to hold
