[length: 04:18]
[00:03.26]You were the promise at dawn
[00:09.38]I was the morning after
[00:14.57]You were Jesus Christ, my Lord
[00:20.82]I was the money lender
[00:27.42]You were the sensitive woman
[00:32.57]I was the very reverend Freud
[00:38.56]You were the manual orgasm
[00:43.84]I was the dirty little boy
[00:48.66]And is this what you wanted
[00:53.41]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[00:58.76]By the ghost of you and me?
[01:05.68]Is this what you wanted
[01:08.56]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[01:13.76]By the ghost of you and me?
[01:17.40]
[01:20.33]You were Marlon Brando
[01:26.64]I was Steve McQueen
[01:32.40]You were K.Y. Jelly
[01:37.68]I was Vaseline
[01:45.24]You were the father of modern medicine
[01:49.79]I was Mr. Clean
[01:54.63]You were the whore and the beast of Babylon
[02:00.08]I was Rin Tin Tin
[02:03.60]
[02:06.81]And is this what you wanted
[02:11.56]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[02:17.05]By the ghost of you and me?
[02:22.26]And is this what you wanted
[02:25.62]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[02:31.15]By the ghost of you and me?
[02:35.50]
[02:38.63]You got old and wrinkled
[02:45.12]I stayed seventeen
[02:50.94]You lusted after so many
[02:56.70]I laid here with one
[03:02.90]You defied your solitude
[03:08.41]I came through alone
[03:13.12]You said you could never love me
[03:18.93]I undid your gown
[03:24.89]And is this what you wanted
[03:29.58]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[03:35.47]By the ghost of you and me?
[03:40.45]And is this what you wanted
[03:44.40]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[03:49.03]By the ghost of you and me?
[03:54.54]I mean is this what you wanted
[03:57.86]To live in a house that is haunted (haunted)
[04:03.09]By the ghost of you and me?
[04:08.18]That’s right, is this what you wanted?
