Lyrics

[Verse] The walls of this hotel are paper-thin Last night I heard you making love to him The struggle mouth to mouth and limb to limb The grunt of unity when he came in I stood there with my ear against the wall I was not seized by jealousy at all [Chorus] In fact a burden lifted from my soul I learned that love was out of my control A heavy burden lifted from my soul I learned that love was out of my control [Verse] I listened to your kisses at the door I never heard the world so clear before You ran your bath and you began to sing I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing I stood there with my ear against the wall I was not seized by jealousy at all [Chorus] In fact a burden lifted from my soul I heard that love was out of my control A heavy burden lifted from my soul I learned that love was out of my control [Verse] And I can't wait to tell you to your face And I can't wait for you to take my place You are The Naked Angel In My Heart You are The Woman With Her Legs Apart [Chorus] It's written on the walls of this hotel You go to heaven once you've been to hell A heavy burden lifted from my soul I heard that love was out of my control
