[Verse 1]
Look at us
The picture of happiness
Not so long ago
Aw, not so very long ago
The pride of all our friends
The perfect couple were we

[Chorus]
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one-sided
There's no chance at all
The walls have gotta fall
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one-sided
There's no chance at all

Living inside our castle of loneliness
Unable to make amends
Such perfect strangers are we

Just a sad story
[Chorus]
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one-sided
There's no chance at all
The walls have gotta fall
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one-sided
There's no chance at all
The walls have gotta fall
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one-sided
There's no chance at all
The walls have gotta fall
Living in a house divided
With a love that's so one-sided
There's no chance at all...
