Make This House A Home

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well there's something in us living

There's something you should know

There was a time for us to fall

Now it's time to grow

But you know it's not the way

That i intended it to be

Crossing hearts and killing souls

And trying to get down to what's real

All i ever wanted was to make this house a home

I let go of sinking sand won't you help me find a stone

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

Was to make this house a home

All i needed was your hand to hold

I spent so much time alone

I needed your direction

But we re-aligned my broken bones

Well they're running from a lifeless state

Somehow we lost our hold

All we have with us is change

Left over from what started out as gold

All i ever wanted was to make this house a home

I let go of sinking sand - won't you help me find a stone

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

Was to make this house a home

This is what i give to you

It's flesh and blood

It's body and soul

Won't you take what's left of who i am

And try to see it whole

I'm holding you responsible for every word i say

If you feel the brokenness

Won't you try and look the other way

I never meant to be so low

I only wanted you to see

That time was healing someone else

But it's tearing apart the very heart of me

This is what i give to you

It's flesh and blood

It's body and soul

Won't you take what's left of who i am

And try to see it whole

All i ever wanted was to make this house a home

I let go of sinking sand - won't you help me find a stone

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

All i ever wanted

Was to make this house a home

So make this house a home

Make this house a home

Make this house a home
