More Than a House, A Home

We walked that day, straight through the door
knew right away, down to our very core
this little house, imperfect 'tis truth
was meant for us, to live 'neath it's roof

That was years ago and here we are still
'times we still catch that little thrill
not for just the house, but for each other as well
seems our lives do mirror the houses spell

{CHORUS}
If these walls could talk, I'll tell ya what they'd say
That every minute of every single day
We share our lives, the laughs, the cries
The biggest moments, the little sighs
This place is home that much is true
but 'tis only so 'cause I'm here with you


Children's growth, marked on a wall
Window glass, shattered from a ball
A daughters news, of a wedding to be
A sons report that he'd be off to sea

Bridal showers, baby ones too
tantruming children, as they're wont to do
pets in training, sometimes making a mess
would I do it again? A resounding YES!

{CHORUS}
If these walls could talk, I'll tell ya what they'd say
That every minute of every single day
We share our lives, the laughs, the cries
The biggest moments, the little sighs
This place is home that much is true
but 'tis only so 'cause I'm here with you


So quickly time has come for just us two
A sudden silence comes ringing through
A little sadness as they've all gone
more, a joy, for knowing a job well done

We rediscover each other, in brand new ways
Find peaceful solace within longer days
Sunset of our lives and still the truth is there
Adding the gold to our Silvering hair:

{CHORUS}
If these walls could talk, I'll tell ya what they'd say
That every minute of every single day
We share our lives, the laughs, the cries
The biggest moments, the little sighs
This place is home that much is true
but 'tis only so 'cause I'm here with you
