Alanis Morissette - Heart Of The House Lyrics

What a beautiful song. It has evolved with me and meant so many things to me at different times. My 7 year old daughter loves it now and has started calling it the night night song because she loves to listen while she falls peacefully to sleep.

I remember the Rolling Stone review liked Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie but felt this song really could have been left off the album. I thought it was the sweetest melody on the album. It's a very catchy song. My favourite of Alanis'.

It's a great album and this is one of the best songs on it

Agora e eu sei do que as "estacas de rosas" significam...

My favorite singer she since was blessedly first played on American Airwaves!

My mother Rev. Dr. Joan Porteous

When I listened to this song as a kid, I felt sorry for myself that I didn't know anyone like this. Now, I'm grown & I'm the heart of the house for the people I love.

cant listen it at work. i'm holding breath not to cry
thank you Alanis for this peace of love in music pack

You are the original template
You are the original exemplary
How seen were you actually?
How revered were you honestly at the time?

Why pleased with your low maintenance?
You loved us more than we could've love you back
Where was your ally your partner in feminine crime?

Oh mother who's your buddy
Oh mother who's got your back
The heart of the house
The heart of the house
All hail the goddess!

You were "good ol'"
You were "count on 'er 'till four am"
You saw me run from the house
In the snow melodramatically

Oh mother who's your sister?
Oh mother who's your friend?
The heart of the house
The heart of the house
All hail the goddess!

We left the men and we went for a walk in the gatineaus
And talked like women to women would
Womyn to womyn would "where did you get that from?
Must've been your father your dad"

I got it from you I got it from you

Do you see yourself in my gypsy garage sale ways?
In my fits of laughter?
In my tinkerbell tendencies?
In my lack of color coordination?

I know u better now

Beautiful song in every way

No Words. Beauty In Motion.

it's beautiful

Makes my eyes misty thinking about my mom

I love this Woman..such legend..

So beautiful...and when I heard this live at my second concert....she did this so flawlessly!

This one reminds me so much of my mother. I miss her! She taught me to be strong, no matter how hard life could be. She never let me and my sisters fall. Still, over these 2 years without her, sometimes it's just too hard to breathe. Then I try to get focused on the best moments we spent together, including the silly fights for absolutely nothing more important than the love she gave me. And there was plenty love on her... and that's what makes me move on and lead my life as strong as she used to be. Miss you, mom! Wherever you are, never forget I love you!

Lucy Dias the ones that bond that deeply with us live on forever in our hearts, and never go away

lOVE THIS sooo much!

Must have been your father your dad I GOT IT FROM YOU !!!
Genious!
