Ada, OK (feat. Patty Griffin)

In this old house, the doors won't open,
The window's cracked; the screens are broken.
Believe you me, it ain't worth hoping
In a house where love's gone bad.

Tell me, dear, where did you find
The strength of will and extra time
To finally break this heart of mine
In a house where love's gone bad.

Did I want you way too much?
Did I hunger for your touch?
Were we married in a rush
A lifetime ago?

We used to be the perfect hosts;
We raised our glasses in a toast.
But now this room is full of ghosts
In a house where love's gone bad.

Did I want you way too much?
Did I hunger for your touch?
Were we married in a rush
A lifetime ago?

I guess you never realized
I saw right through your alibis
Now you're someone I don't recognize
In a house where love's gone bad.

The church bells ring off in the distance
A blackbird sings upon a fence post
And I believe I've found my witness
In a house where love's gone bad

In a house where love's gone . . .
