[Chorus:] Well, I bet you any amount of money He'll be coming back to you Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it Sometimes life is funny You think you're in your darkest hour When the lights are coming on in the house of love Ooh, house of love You've been up all night Thinking it was over He's been out of sight At least for the moment But when something this strong Ooh, Gets a hold on you The odds are ninety-nine to one It's got a hold on him too When the lights are coming on in the house of love Now when the house is dark And you're all alone inside You've gotta listen to your heart And put away your foolish pride Though the storm is breaking And thunder shakes the walls Love with a firm foundation Ain't never, never, never gonna fall Though the storm is breaking And thunder shakes the walls Love with a firm foundation Ain't never, never, never gonna fall Well, I bet you any amount of money He'll come back to you Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it Sometimes life is funny You think you're in your darkest hour When the lights are coming, lights are coming on Well, I bet you any amount of money, baby He'll be coming back to you Back to you, back to you Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it Sometimes life is funny You think you're in your darkest hour When the lights are coming on in the house of love Ooh, yeah Ooh, I know there ain't no doubt about it Sometimes life is funny You think you're in your darkest hour When the lights are coming on in the house of love
