House of their dreams

The corner office was his dream

More like a prison now it seems,

Somewhere on the corporate climb

He left his warrior behind,

Now he is just a worker at a daily grind

He steels his years and numbs his mind

His strength is fading his dreams are bind,

Cause this is not the life he had in mind.

So she lies awake because he's up all night,

Looking at a screen that tells him lies,

But the grass is greener on the other side,

So she's at the gym fighting off the years

To be young again and calm her fears

That she'd never be enough for him,

Just as a young man catches her eye.

Now they are trapped in their own worlds

With their wars

With their cell phones

And their closed doors ,, family,

But their all alone together

In the house of their dreams.

Little sister she's

A sixteen year old princess

Lost somewhere between the swing set

And a brand new crush his chariot awaits.

And the brother's room is glowing

With trophy's to shout his name,

But he trade all his high school fame,

For some back yard catch with his hero again.

Now they are trapped in their own worlds

With their wars

With their cell phones

And their closed doors

It's funny how quiet it seems,

But their all alone together

In the house of their dreams.

So now there all dressed up in Sunday best

Sit up strangers like the rest

Sing of songs of peace and rest,

That Jesus freely gives.

The kids look up as daddy stands,

Takes his bride with trembling hands,

Brother kneels at his father's side;

Princess looks in her momma's eyes,

The tears tear down the walls

As daddy prays.

But trapped in our old worlds

And our own wars

With our cell phones

And our closed doors,

God only you can save our family,

And now on this Rock we'll build,

On this Rock we'll build

The house of our dreams.
