Eros prays we build our house upon him
Sees how well it stands
How long we last
Built upon the sand
On the idol Eros

So when he's gone can I do what Eros does?
What he does for us, he does for us
And when he's gone can it be the way it was?
Bring him back to us, is he all we've got?

Our house is built upon
On the idol Eros

When our haven wavers in the wind
And walls all beg to be abandoned
Blame the idol Eros
When the raven calls and all his melodies
All long to be forgotten
Blame the idol Eros

(Blame the idol)

What's left to say but I loved the way it was
'Cause I said I would, I've done all I could.
See what he's done to us?
Oh the idol Eros

When our haven wavers in the wind
And walls all beg to be abandoned
When the raven calls and all his melodies
All long to be forgotten

When our haven wavers in the wind
And walls all beg to be abandoned
When the raven calls and all his melodies
All long to be forgotten

Blame the idol Eros
