It happens that someone knocks at my door
   Then the whole house starts to shake
   So that it gets really hard to stand up
   And even worse to walk
   I usually fall down
   On the floor
   And i stay there
   Until that someone decides to leave
   And the house calms down
   And i look through the curtains
   To see if he would regret
   To see if he would try again
  
   It happens that someone calls me on the phone
   And my house gets so scared
   That it jumps right up into my throat
   I swallow like crazy
   Hoping my heart will glide
   Back down
   So i can talk to that someone
   Maybe talk to a friend
   But it is too late
   But it is too late
  
   It is beyond my control
   If i don't open up the door
   It is beyond my control
   If i don't answer your calls
   I'm not to blame
   It isn't my fault
   It was you that make my house shake
   It was you that made my heart jump
   It was you that make my house shake
   It was you that made my heart jump
  
   And it happens that i take a walk outside
   Just to get some nice fresh air
   And it happens that i see someone i knew
   A long long time ago
  
   Then i just see him to disappear
   Becoming one with a wall
   Becoming one with a lampost
   Becoming one with a tree
   Becoming one with a street
   Becoming one with a house
   Becoming one with a door
   Becoming one with you all
  
   It is beyond my control
   If i don't open up the door
   It is beyond my control
   If i don't answer you call
   It is beyond my control
   If i just seem to disappear
   It is beyond my control
   If i am suddenly not here
   I'm not to blame
   It isn't my fault
   It was you that make my house shake
   It was you that made my heart jump
   It was you that make my house shake
   It was you that made my heart jump
