I live in a house of cards made of people I know   It shelters me every day   My house is a part of the world   Where live and let love is all we have to say   And if you want, you can go there   All you have to do is believe      And open your eyes and you can see them   The little truths are scattered all around   In the middle of the madness   In the place where quiet can be found   If you don't see that or believe that   They disappear without a sound      'Cause we all live in a house of cards   Take one away and they all come tumbling down   They all come falling down   I live in a crazy world full of crazy things   That I never quite understand      But I know that the people that care for you   Are the measure of any woman or any man   And if you need anything then I'll share   If I need you, would you be there?      Open your eyes and you can see them   The little truths are scattered all around   In the middle of the madness   In the place where quiet can be found   If you don't see that or believe that   They disappear without a sound      'Cause we all live in a house of cards   Take one away and they all come tumbling down   They all come falling down   I live in a crazy world full of crazy things   That I never quite understand      But I know that the people that care for you   Are the measure of any woman or any man   And if you need anything then I'll share   If I need you, would you be there?      Hold on to what is close to you   'Cause letting it go is like losing a part of your soul   Of your soul      So baby, open your eyes and you can see them   The little truths are scattered all around   In the middle of the madness   In the place where quiet can be found   If you don't see that or believe that   They disappear without a sound      'Cause we all live in a house of cards   Take one away and they all come tumbling down   They all come falling down   I live in a crazy world full of crazy things   That I never quite understand      But I know that the people that care for you   Are the measure of any woman or any man   And if you need anything then I'll share   If I need you, would you be there?
