Gretchen Peters
The Lady of the House
Open up your suitcase and show me what you got
I don't need a new religion, I don't need no pans or pots
But your little ritual might entertain me
Yeah, the lady of the house is in and might be so inclined
If you're selling something sacred I might be ready to buy
It's not unthinkable that you might save me
So I will wait for you, see just what this love can do
I will wait for you
To show me something bright and new
I will wait for you
Did you find redemption in your thirty dollar suit?
Or maybe resignation would be closer to the truth
Like you're invisible the way that I am
Some nights I lie awake
And wonder if I've finally gone insane
But if I don't do nothin' nothin's ever gonna change
I'm available, I think you understand
And I will wait for you, see just what this love can do
I will wait for you
To show me something bright and new
I will wait for you
See just what this love can do
See just what this love can do
See just what this love can do
So open up your suitcase and show me what you got
I don't need a new religion, I don't need no pans or pots
It's not unthinkable that you might love me
